Open City Council Position to Be Filled by Council Appointment

The City of Snoqualmie is accepting applications from Snoqualmie residents to fill a vacancy on the city council. Position #2 on the seven-member council is open following the resignation of Council Member Jeff MacNichols, who is moving out of Snoqualmie.
