Santa Monica’s State of the City Back Next Month for Virtual Event

Address set for February 7 

​​Santa Monica’s State of the City address returns next month. For the third year in a row, the event will be virtual. 

The City of Santa Monica’s State of the City will be held on Tuesday, February 7, 2023, at 5:30 p.m.

Recently-appointed Mayor Gleam Davis and City Manager David White will give the address, including highlights from 2022. According to the City, the speeches will touch on progress made “addressing homelessness, a safe and clean community, and an equitable economic recovery.” 

The virtual event will air live on CityTV Channel 16 and will be streamed on the City of Santa Monica’s YouTube channel at 5:30 p.m.

“Our annual State of the City is an important moment to come together as a community as we reflect on the previous year and what’s on the horizon,” said City Manager David White. “I’m excited to join Mayor Davis as we share all the ways the City is working to make Santa Monica an incredible place to live, work, and visit. Join us on February 7!”

The 2020 event was one of Santa Monica’s last in-person events prior to the pandemic. Since then, the event has been held in a virtual format.
