Duluth City Hall will again be open for trick-or-treaters for its City Hall-oween event, scheduled on Wednesday, October 30 from 3:00 to 4:00 pm. City Hall-oween will be a safe place for children to come in costume and trick-or-treat from each department housed in City Hall.

Here are some guidelines for Halloween costumes in City Hall (to make sure to abide by the City Hall use policy):

  • No masks or items that can hide your face/identity (surgical masks used for health purposes are fine).
  • No violent or offensive costumes.
  • No gang references or horror characters.
  • No weapons.
  • No costumes that demean race, religion, nationality, gender, or handicap conditions.

City Hall-oween was begun in 2019 as a way to welcome City staff to participate in decorating their work spaces at City Hall, and to invite their families, as well as families from the public, to trick-or-treat at City Hall. While it was paused during the pandemic, the City is pleased to continue this event in 2024.

Howie: The city budget they don't want you to understand

Local Government Aid alone covers nearly $35 million, about one-third of the budget. It’s the difference between black ink and red. Lose even 5 percent of that aid, and Duluth’s “balanced” budget implodes by millions. That’s not financial strength — that’s dependence disguised as stability.

Howie: Lot D optics in motion

Duluth’s short-term goal is tactical — keep Inland’s exclusivity alive, hit the paperwork milestones, and convince the Legislature to fund the $10.85 million in site-prep money the city calls the key that unlocks $250 million in private investment.

Howie: City of Duluth levy up 52% in eight years

In 2025, for instance, they raised the levy by 1.85 percent but declared it a “0 percent” year for current taxpayers because new development supposedly absorbed the increase. But that’s a shell game. The levy still grew by nearly $800,000.
