Why is the City of London using an online engagement platform?
Community engagement usually involves attending an open house, public meeting or providing a letter to Council. Using an online engagement platform is an effort made by the City of London to reach more residents and to give residents an opportunity to provide input on projects and to bring ideas forward.
- It is a great way to keep up-to-date and provide input.
- View comments and input that other residents are providing and respond with your own views.
- An opportunity to participate without having to attend an in- person event.
