FAQs

Traditional public engagement usually involves attending a public meeting or providing written submissions to council, and this can often be time consuming and inconvenient, and sometimes intimidating. Now that there are restrictions on large public gathers, Be Head Belgrade gives you the opportunity to have your say on issues that are important to you, at a time and place of your choice.

• It is a quick, safe and convenient way to have your say on a range of issues and topics.

• It is a great way to keep up to date and contribute your views on issues affecting your community.

• You can see what other community members think about an issue or topic, respond with your own views and engage in a discussion.

• You do not have to attend community meetings at a set place and time, you can contribute at a time and place that suits you.

• It allows for a range of different people, with different views to discuss matters that may impact their community.

Submit your feedback via the online discussion forums, quick polls, forms and surveys. Just make sure you're on the correct project page.

We ask you to register to the website for a few reasons:

• It helps ensure that a broader set of perspectives have an opportunity to be represented by attributing feedback and frequency of feedback to individuals. This will provide a richer and more valuable response to help staff and Council make decisions.
• It promotes accountability and encourages people to provide more thoughtful responses because feedback can be attributed to them.
• It also means that we can let you know any news if something major changes about the project.
