Online questionnaire launched as first of several opportunities for locals to weigh in on City services
LETHBRIDGE – The City of Lethbridge has launched an online questionnaire today as the first of several opportunities this fall for residents to offer input regarding their experience with City services, as well as their spending priorities.
Councillor Mark Campbell, chairperson of Council’s Open and Effective Government Committee, says this November council will set a new four-year operating budget, and now is the time for people to let council know what they think.
“It’s part of city council’s strategic plan. We wanted to get more engagement from the public, and we wanted to know what they were thinking. We want them to tell us what’s working for them, and what’s not working for them. With these discussions from the public it gives us an opportunity when we go into budget deliberations to understand what the people want,” Campbell said.
The questionnaire and other community engagement activities this fall will ask residents what their priorities would be if they ran the City of Lethbridge.
