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.”

“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!”
