Every August cities across the nation collaborate in the fun celebration of local government by taking part in #CityHallSelfie day.

#CityHallSelfie started seven years ago as a celebration of local government and to showcase the work and pride of the public servants.  Phoenix’s City Manager Jeff Barton took his selfie stick and hit the road for this year’s celebration. 

“There are so many valuable members of our team of more than 14,000 city employees that never even step foot in City Hall but are crucial members of the great work done each day for our residents,” Barton explains.

So this year, Barton made stops across the city to showcase city work being done outside of City Hall. His selfie roadshow debuted on Aug. 15 on the @CityofPhoenixAZ social media pages.
