What's a Citizen Assembly?
Sign upA Citizen Assembly is a way for everyday people to influence local laws. As a Millcreek resident, you have the opportunity to make history as this will be one of the first Citizen Assemblies in the U.S.!
First the city will mail out invitations to residents with all the details.
Out of everyone who responds, we will randomly select people, like in a lottery, to create a mini-snapshot of the community
The people chosen will represent every slice of our community, from age and income to political affiliation, ensuring everyone’s voice gets heard. Plus we will gather input from the broader community for the Assembly members to consider.
Once the assembly members are chosen, they will:
- Learn about the issue
- Discuss the issue
- Make recommendations
Mayor Jackson and the City Council will formally consider the recommendations and respond, maybe even making them into law!
THE FORM BELOW IS FOR LEARNING MORE ABOUT THE ASSEMBLY, VOLUNTEERING AND STAYING IN THE LOOP WITH UPDATES. INVITATIONS TO PARTICIPATE AS A DELEGATE WILL BE SENT OUT SEPARATELY.
