The City of Edmonton has adopted a public involvement policy to guide consultation processes for all municipal decisions, from major policy reforms to infrastructure projects. Discover the implications and lessons learned in transforming public input into value for communities and municipalities.
• Bring corporate consistency to public consultation initiatives.
• Build awareness around consultation scope, purpose and objectives.
• Translate long term objectives and public input into action.

Learn how the Involving Edmonton Policy and Framework was successfully used in recent consultation projects in the City, including the SE/West LRT Concept Planning Project.
