Public Engagement Portal

The Town is reviewing options to further engage the public in the budget process.  We are not receiving the level of public participation we would like to have in the annual budget/Town Meeting process.  We are exploring an interactive tool that may provide a better means for citizens to understand the budget.  We are in discussions with ClearGov to provide us with a portal that would be added to our website. 

We are asking for those who may be interested to use the link below to review the demo from ClearGov.  We are interested in your feedback as to whether you think this would be an effective tool for public engagement.  Please tell us what you like and don't like.  Do you think this is a tool worth pursuing? 

The link will be up until Friday, May 26th, 2017.
