Traditional Public Consultations/Meetings: Are They Past Due?

Are public consultations/meeting as they are currently formatted past their best before date?

I think so. The most we have had attend was the Group 2 work for the multi use facility. However, when it comes to budget, traffic, public hearings, Council meetings we are lucky to have a handful, we did once.

There are other ways of doing public meetings and I would like to know your opinion.

• Webcast
• Facebook meeting
• Radio show
• Podcast
• Luncheon
• Supper
• ????
• Not needed

Speaking of engaging the public: I would also like to introduce and implement an "Annual State of the Town" address in which the Mayor outlines:

• what is happening,
• where we are going,
• how we are getting there,
• why we are going there.

Email me and let me know your opinion.
