Happy New Year, Petaluma!

As we bid 2024 goodbye and head into 2025, we’re excited to connect with you and share the many wonderful things happening in our city.

One new initiative from this year was the launch of our One Petaluma Podcast — and we invite you to listen in to hear from city staff on projects big and small! It’s a great way to stay informed, engaged, and up-to-date on all the exciting happenings here at the City – and to understand how they impact our community. Check out past episodes, subscribe, and get ready for an exciting lineup of topics this year. Click the links below to listen.

Episode 1 – Empathy and Information: Meet the City Communications team working behind the scenes to bring you information about your local government. 

Episode 2 – Safe Streets: Learn about our Safe Streets program and how the Public Works team is working to improve not just the condition of our roads, but expand mobility options across the City.

Episode 3 – Fire Season: Our team shares important info on our fire risk here in Petaluma and how they work with other jurisdictions and community groups to create a system of mutual aid to strengthen our protections in the event of fires and other disasters.

Episode 4 – At Your Civil Service: Originally posted the week of the 2024 Presidential Election, this episode provides a deep dive on how local government serves the community, no matter what happens in any given November.

More to come!

In 2025, we’ll be kicking things off with an episode dedicated to the Petaluma Fairgrounds — a space close to the heart of our community. We’ll also be exploring topics like community policing, Petaluma’s General Plan, and the Blueprint for Climate Action in the months ahead!
