Oak Bay, BC encouraged residents to provide funding input with Citizen Budget portal

Oak Bay, BC Citizen Budget Portal Residents Input

Citizen Budget was an interactive tool that allowed residents to adjust program funding for the 2018-2019 budget. This tool incorporated sliders that helped users add, subtract, or hold steady on budget items. Each adjustment led to a recalculation of the resident's property tax. Participants in this two-week pilot submitted their budget suggestions through the website. City officials also sought feedback on usability to improve future iterations.
