Community Engagement
Consultation that ends in a visible decision, not an archived comment box.
Public meetings, comment portals and surveys collect opinion, but the contributions rarely reach the department that could act on them, and residents rarely learn what happened to what they wrote. Community Engagement runs consultation as a procedure with a start, a routing path and a published outcome, so participation produces a record the public can check.

A consultation procedure with contributions grouped by topic and routed to the responsible department.
What changes
Contributions reach a department
Every comment is tagged to a topic and routed to the team that owns it, instead of sitting in a mailbox nobody reads.
Results people can check
Each procedure closes with a published outcome: what was received, what was accepted, what was not, and why.
Participation with integrity
Verified participants and a single contribution per person per procedure, so a consultation cannot be flooded.
Key capabilities
Public consultation
Open a procedure with a defined subject, documents, comment period and closing date.
Participatory budgeting
Collect proposals, screen them for eligibility, put the eligible ones to a vote and publish the results.
Report an issue
Residents submit a location-tagged report that becomes a work item, not a forum post.
Surveys and polls
Short structured instruments for questions that need counts rather than free text.
Verified participants
Identity verification tied to the resident account, with one contribution per procedure.
Published outcomes
The decision, the reasoning and the record of contributions stay online after the procedure closes.
How it works
Open the procedure
Publish the subject, the supporting documents and the period during which contributions are accepted.
Collect contributions
Comments, proposals and votes arrive through the resident portal, each tied to a verified account.
Process, do not archive
Contributions are grouped by topic and sent to the department that can answer them.
Publish the outcome
The decision and the reasoning go back on the same page, alongside what was received.
Keep the record
The closed procedure stays available, so the next consultation starts from a documented history.
Community Engagement works with the systems your city already runs.
Resident portal and identity, GIS and address data, document management, council agenda and minutes, email and SMS delivery, open data publication.
