Advisory Councils

ARC, and its Advisory Councils, have a unique relationship with the City of Seattle, defined by City Ordinance No. 122588 and outlined in the Master Services Agreement between ARC and SPR. This relationship's nature limits how an Advisory Council can engage in political advocacy.

In June of 2021, the Cedar River Group completed an 18-month advocacy project to assess and develop recommendations for the Advisory Council system. Their work led to advocacy guidelines that councils can use to support equitable and inclusive recreation for Seattle residents.
