Content: If you aren’t sure where to start with local government, here are three first steps. Attend (Or Virtually Attend) a City Council Meeting
There’s hardly anything in your life that your local government doesn’t have some influence over. The easiest way to know exactly what your local government does and who is a part of it? Attend their meetings. The agendas of city council meetings are available publicly on your local government’s website. If you want your city council to address an issue you care about, you can request they add it to their agenda. Once you are at the meeting, listen closely to what topics are presented and how your city councilors address them. What are their solutions? What are their thoughts and ideas for making your community a better place to live? Often, city council meetings will have a reserved time period, either at the end or the beginning, for citizen participation.
