“This award-winning, innovative event has become a very important event for engagement on many City projects. We get a lot of extremely valuable resident input on such a wide variety of projects. A face-to-face event like this provides insight that an online survey can’t always capture. It not only provides staff with helpful information, but it can also provide more detail to residents interested in a project.”
- Michelle Dwyer, Manager of Engagement and Volunteers
