We’ve all noticed, Gig Harbor and the surrounding unincorporated areas are growing, fast. The local candidates that get elected this year will have a profound effect on the course our community takes to manage this rapid growth. 

We believe that responsible citizenship starts by being engaged politically at the local level. To help our neighbors learn more about this year’s local elections, we’ve prepared a handy 2017 Candidate Guide to keep track of who’s who. So download the guide, come to the forum and be in the know. (Download guide In the comment section of this event)
