Community Engagement

Community engagement in planning and decision-making improves the County’s understanding of resident and partner concerns, expectations, and priorities, and ensures that diverse perspectives inform decision-making. 

We’d like to understand what participation in municipal decision-making means to you and why this is important. Share your comments and heart the ones you like or agree with.


Here are some questions to consider:

  • Why did you decide to take part in this Ideas Board today? What motivates you to engage with the County? What else might help you take part in decision-making?  
  • Why is public engagement important to our community?
  • Do you feel as though your input makes a difference? Why or why not? How might the County build trust?
  • If, over the next 10 years, we improved our public engagement practices, how would our community change for the better?
