Why is the City of Belleville engaging online?
The City of Belleville recognizes that community engagement is a better way of doing business, which can lead to better outcomes for the community and the organization. Traditional community outreach usually involves attending town hall-style meetings or providing written testimony, which can often be time-consuming and inconvenient.
The city wanted to add a community engagement approach that is innovative, open, and inclusive. We know that many members of our community are online, and so in addition to all our usual methods for engaging, Get Involved Belleville is all about making it easier for you to connect at a time and place of your choice.
