welcome to the emerson/garfield neighborhood

Your work as a group will bring recognition from the City Council that you have met the goals for becoming a Neighborhood Council. The group will be officially added to the list of Councils. Your neighborhood benefits because you and your neighbors have shown that you care.

The Emerson/Garfield Neighborhood is one of the cornerstone neighborhoods of Spokane, rich in tradition, history, and wonderful citizens! As a resident of Emerson/Garfield, you have many opportunities to become involved in neighborhood events and decisions. If you are not yet a resident of Emerson/Garfield, we encourage you to consider our neighborhood as place of residence. Each neighborhood is represented by a Neighborhood Council and each Neighborhood Council falls within one of three Spokane City Council Districts.

Emerson/Garfield falls within Spokane City Council District #3 and is represented by Councilwoman Nancy McLaughlin and Councilman Steve Corker. Any resident of the Emerson/Garfield Neighborhood can participate in the Neighborhood Council, and we encourage you to become an active member of your neighborhood.
