Project Overview

Aha! Consulting designed and ran a deliberative panel focussed on reviewing the City’s entire $84.5 million operating budget. Spending three days over a month, the panel made recommendations across 19 budget areas.

The Challenge

The City wanted to involve community members in making meaningful recommendations across its entire $84.5 million operating budget, requiring a rigorous and innovative engagement model.

Our Approach

We designed and ran a deliberative panel process in which participants spent three days over a month reviewing the City's full operating budget and making recommendations across 19 budget areas.
