Tips for effective public comment on the 2011-12 budget

The Mayor’s Office has posted a guide to effective public comment on the proposed 2011-2012 budget.

The Mayor’s tip sheet highlights two primary ways to provide feedback:

  1. Make your comment online at http://www.seattle.gov/council/budget/budget_form.htm
  2. Tell the City Council what’s important to you in person, at one of the three public hearings scheduled.

The first public budget hearing took place already, but there are two more scheduled for October: one on October 13 at the Brockey Center at South Seattle Community College, and another on October 29 in Council Chambers at Seattle City Hall. Click here for more information.
