Public Comment
It's increasingly difficult for elected officials and constituents to hear each other's perspectives.
Elected officials have no channel to get representative feedback
Questions are asked through non-representative channels (Town Halls, ad hoc conversations, etc)
Elected officials hear the opinions of the loudest and most extreme voices…
Without representative feedback it is hard for elected officials to make correct decisions



… but do not hear the opinions of the majority

Questions are posed to voters through Public Comment
All voters, not just the loudest, can respond to questions in real time
Voter responses and trends are analyzed for decision making

Question from Planning Commissioner:

​​
1) Walking trails
2) Pickleball courts
3) Natural forest spaces
4) Child play areas
5) Picnic and grilling pavilions
