Include the missing voices in your public comment process

It's hard for most residents to participate in city council and other government meetings. Whether they're intimidated by public speaking, uncomfortable confronting others with opposing views, uneasy about publicly stating their opinion or too busy to attend evening meetings, most of your community's voices are rarely heard. When only a few people participate, it can be hard to know what the rest of the community thinks.

For government agencies

Open City Hall™ helps cities and other government agencies bring missing voices into the community dialog. Instead of waiting for a three minute window to speak in front of a few attendees, residents can read what many are saying online and make their own statement on their own schedule from the safety and privacy of their own home.

A Peak Democracy service

Not a blog or a social network, Open City Hall™ is an online public comment process monitored by Peak Democracy to have the order and decorum of a government meeting.

Find out how Open City Hall™ enables government agencies to implement online public comment forums that are civil yet meet government freedom-of-speech and transparency laws.
