Have you ever been to a public meeting? Have you hosted one? What was it like? Could it have been better? In this episode, Sam and Bret share their experiences attending and hosting public meetings. We’ll also offer some ideas on how they could be better for practitioners and more meaningful for the folks that you are seeking feedback from. Also, bonus ‘Storytime with Bret’ and an unanticipated (and surprisingly in-depth) discussion about roundabouts in southeastern Ohio.

Aside from traditional methods, communities have utilized online engagement platforms like MindMixer (www.mindmixer.com) and Metro Quest (www.metroquest.com) to facilitate public engagement. There are many others, these are just examples.
