AGENDA

We, the members of the Albany City Council would like to reaffirm that we welcome and value all of our diverse community members regardless of where they are from, who they love, how they worship, how they look, their gender identity, their abilities, their economic status, or how they vote. We honor the Native people who were the original stewards of this land.

We invite the entire Albany community to join with us in creating a safe and welcoming city; one in which we celebrate our differences and learn from each other; one in which we are proud to raise our children.

"Diversity is not about how we differ. Diversity is about embracing one another's uniqueness". ~Ola Joseph
