Public Affairs

Strategic-Messagin

Tripepi Smith is not a lobbying firm, but a lot of our work is in the local government space in California. As a result, we have a unique depth of knowledge in this area and offer services to match. Clients engage Tripepi Smith to represent them in a sales and marketing capacity in Southern California, firms use our agenda monitoring services to keep track of city news, and we are often onsite for council meetings or attending regional events to stay in touch with key decision makers.

Communications Training

Our busy lives warrant many types of interactions everyday, whether it be a quick series of emails or an extended meeting with a client for in-depth discussion. With so many opportunities to communicate, we all make the occasional grammatical faux pas or default to the slang of everyday conversation. Being able to clearly express your ideas in a variety of situations is important. Here at Tripepi Smith, we believe communication is key, not only to create successful relationships, but also to maintain them. Our training offers you a chance to review the basics, build your confidence, and help make you a better communicator.

Due to Senate Bill 1383 (SB 1383), California cities must now require residents to change their habits around disposing of food scraps and other types of organic waste. SB 1383 aims to reduce 75% of organic waste and increase edible food recovery by 20% by 2025.

Tripepi Smith can help communicate clear and actionable information to help navigate this change before state-mandated fines take effect.

Districting Services

Copy of Redistricting Web Content

After the California Voting Right Act passed, many local government agencies made the move to by-district elections. Now with the 2020 Census nearly complete, these agencies need to adjust the district boundaries to balance for populations. This process is called Redistricting. The list of public agencies facing the redistricting process this year has grown exponentially and new legislation requires this process to require more outreach effort than before. With our expertise in policy and our extensive experience in executing community education and outreach efforts, Tripepi Smith is ready to help public agencies successfully get through the redistricting process.
