This discussion was from the CCOC (Common Council Organizational Committee), two days before the Mayor discussion on the budget There's a little discussion about this on thedailypage forum, which I don't really totally understand what they are talking about, I don't know if its about this discussion below, or this post or information from this post. Either way, it started out mis-informed and has just twisted all the facts. (Shocking! I know!) So, here's the discussion that was had about participatory budgeting.

This is from the CCOC (Common Council Organizational Committee) last week. The issue is what will this committee, which is the only "council members only" committee will work on. It's a chance for the members of the committee to talk about what they thought were priorities for them to work on. Generally, these would be council related issues. Here's what they came up with. And my comments.
