Neighborhood Council Districts are citizen groups based in each of eight neighborhoods which actively participate in shaping the future of Tacoma. The City Council created the councils to broaden citizen input and to give greater representation in city government. The Community Council is composed of the chairs of each Neighborhood Council. In 1992, the City Council established Tacoma's eight Neighborhood Councils to advise them on issues of local importance and to seek consensus among residents on specific plans of action. The Neighborhood Councils also undertake a wide range of neighborhood improvements in collaboration with staff from the City of Tacoma and other agencies.

This EnviroAtlas dataset describes the block group population and the percentage of the block group population that has potential views of water bodies. A potential view of water is defined as having a body of water that is greater than 300m2 within 50m of a residential location. The window views are considered "potential" because the procedure does not account for presence or directionality of windows in one's home. The residential locations are defined using the EnviroAtlas Dasymetric (2011/October 2015) map. This dataset was produced by the US EPA to support research and online mapping activities related to EnviroAtlas.

This is the PUBLIC FACING MAP posted on the City's webpage (cityoftacoma.org/litter) showing the point and line features (i.e. traffic circle, city owned/managed park and street locations) where folks are engaged in cleanup efforts in the City of Tacoma through the Adopt-a-Spot or Neighborhood Litter Patrol Programs.The Program Coordinator in the Neighborhood and Community Services Department updates the map as new folks join the programs, as changes occur (i.e. someone moves from the Neighborhood Litter Patrol Program to the Adopt-a-Spot Program) or as folks leave the programs.

This assessment identifies existing UTC and Possible Planting Areas (PPA) to assist in developing an urban forest management plan. Purpose: Examine urban tree canopy (UTC) in Tacoma across several geographic boundaries to assist in developing an urban forest management plan.Process: Using high resolution aerial imagery from the USDA's National Agriculture Imagery Program (NAIP), Plan-It Geo used remote sensing and GIS techniques to map and measure land cover types across several geographic scales.Created by Plan-It Geo, LLC, Arvada, Colorado.

This map service provides general bridge information for all transportation structures within the Washington State Bridge Inventory System (WSBIS) in Washington State. This includes bridges, large culverts, tunnels, pedestrian & railroads passing over state routes, and pedestrian bridges adjacent to state routes on state right of way. The accuracy and completeness of the transportation structure data (including the structure location) are the responsibility of the structure owner. In cases where pedestrian & railroad structures pass over state or local agency routes, this data may be the responsibility of the route owner under the structure. Note that local agencies do not include a complete inventory of pedestrian & railroad structures in local agency rights of way. Please Note: If there is a vertical clearance restriction related to the bridge/structure, the minimum clearance will appear in either the MinVertClrncOverDeck, MinVertClrncUnderBridge or TunnelMinVertClrncOverRdBy10 fields.
