A Statement From City Manager Elizabeth Pauli on Intention to Retire

"After much reflection, and with profound gratitude for the experience that I have had serving you and the community, I am announcing my intention to retire from my role as City Manager for the City of Tacoma, effective July 1, 2025.

Serving this community has been the honor of a lifetime. I am deeply grateful for the opportunity to work alongside such dedicated colleagues, employees, partners, and residents who share a passion for making Tacoma a vibrant and thriving city. Together, we have accomplished so much, and I am incredibly proud of what we've achieved.

I will be working closely with the Mayor and City Council to ensure a smooth transition to new leadership. The Mayor and City Council will be discussing the process for selecting an Interim City Manager during the January 28, 2025 Study Session."
