In a recent Spokane government meeting, community members voiced their concerns and support on various issues, highlighting the importance of transparency and public engagement in local governance.

One resident, Larry Andrews, emphasized the need for clearer communication regarding agenda items, advocating for the inclusion of names and topics on the agenda at least 24 hours in advance. He stressed that public input is crucial for informed discussions, stating, \"We can't speak intelligently unless we know what we're speaking for.\" Andrews also called for adherence to laws by council members, urging them to set an example for the community.

The council proceeded to appoint members to several boards, including the Climate Resilience and Sustainability Board, the Transportation Committee, and the Design Review Board. The appointments were approved collectively, with council members expressing their support for the candidates.

Additionally, Will Hewings, another resident, voiced his support for a proposal concerning police department ammunition, which would allocate up to $195,000 annually. This proposal reflects ongoing discussions about public safety and resource allocation within the city.

The meeting underscored the importance of community involvement in local governance, with residents advocating for transparency and accountability from their elected officials.
