State Sen. Pam Roach will host 31st District town hall meetings prior to the upcoming legislative session.  The meetings will be on Saturday, Jan. 19 at Bonney Lake Public Safety Building and South Prairie Community Center.

“I look forward to hearing from citizens in our district. Any issues are fair game. The upcoming budget, education concerns, CPS violations, tax restraints, and so forth,” said Roach.

Town hall meetings are a time for citizens to meet directly to discuss concerns and give opinions.

“This session I will be chairing the Senate Governmental Operations Committee and I will discuss some of my priorities for the committee,” Roach said.

The first meeting is scheduled for 10 a.m. Saturday at the Public Safety Building, 18421 Veterans Memorial Dr. E.

Roach will then host a second meeting at 1 p.m. at the South Prairie Community Center, 121 NW Washington St.
