Sacramento, California – Sacramento City Councilmember Caity Maple is inviting residents to bring Pride Month into City Hall this week, with a formal resolution scheduled for Tuesday’s regular City Council meeting.
The presentation is set for the 5:00 p.m. session on June 16, 2026, inside the City Hall Council Chamber at 915 I Street. The Pride Month item is listed under “Special Presentation/General Communications,” with Maple, who represents District 5, presenting the resolution.
Maple framed the invitation in a light but direct public message, asking residents if they were “looking for more Pride Month activities.”
“Looking for more Pride Month activities? Have you considered coming to a City Council meeting?, Maple wrote on social media.
“Tomorrow, we’ll be presenting our Pride Month resolution, reaffirming our values as a city and giving our thanks to all the organizations and groups that support our LGBTQIA+ neighbors. Hope to see you there,” she added.
The resolution is expected to serve as a ceremonial statement rather than a binding ordinance. Still, for many residents and community groups, these moments carry weight. They place the city’s position on record, recognize the work being done across Sacramento, and offer a public thank-you to the people and organizations supporting LGBTQIA+ neighbors throughout the year.
Tuesday’s meeting also comes after Sacramento opened Pride Month with a Progress Flag raising at City Hall earlier in June. That event brought together elected officials, city staff, LGBTQ+ residents, advocates and community groups as the city marked the start of Pride Month 2026.
The June 16 presentation will add another official step to that calendar. A special performance by the Sacramento Lavender Chorus is also expected during Tuesday’s meeting, adding music to what is usually a formal council chamber setting.
Residents who want to attend can go in person to the City Hall Council Chamber. Those who cannot make it downtown are expected to be able to follow the meeting online through the City of Sacramento’s YouTube channel or the city’s meeting systems, including Granicus and Legistar, where agendas and meeting materials are posted.
For Maple, the message was simple: Pride Month does not only belong in parades, festivals or community gatherings. It can also show up in the rooms where city business is done, where values are spoken into the public record, and where residents are invited to be seen.
