The Tri-Cities City Council announced a new meeting schedule on September 10, 2026, moving regular sessions from 6:00 PM to 7:00 PM. The change aims to accommodate more residents who work evening shifts.

The council cited a 2025 survey showing 68% of respondents preferred later meetings. Councilmember Jane Smith stated, 'We want to ensure all voices are heard, especially those who can't attend early sessions.'

The new schedule takes effect October 1, 2026, with the first meeting at 7:00 PM on October 10. All regular meetings will now be held on the second and fourth Mondays of each month.
