Impacts of Growth

The City of Gig Harbor has experienced unprecedented growth over the last 10 years. Currently, the city is the 3rd fastest growing city in Pierce County. In order to understand and prepare for such growth, city staff has prepared and will be presenting a series of study session discussions to the city council entitled “The Impacts of  Growth”. 

These discussions will be held in study sessions at the end of each City Council meeting for the remainder of 2015. The first such presentation debuted on September 28 and highlighted the projected growth numbers in addition to other information regarding that growth. Information from those presentations will be posted below. The public is invited to attend these study sessions.
