KINGSTON Council is forming a new community panel to consult with in the next two years.
Kingston, Represent will consist of 220 people. Business owners, community group founders, and residents will be invited to take part.
Panel members will provide feedback through online forums, take part in workshops, and will be paid an allowance for attendance at in-person events.
Kingston mayor Hadi Saab said that council is “looking forward to working hand-in-hand with the collaborative engagement group to explore the opportunities and deep-dive into some of the challenges facing Kingston.”
“Kingston, Represent members have an exciting opportunity to help make our city an even better place to live, work and play,” he said. “Council is excited to launch Kingston, Represent, which will see us partnering with our community and listening to a wide range of voices as we make key decisions. We invite you to register to represent your opinions, your experiences, your neighbourhood and your suburb.”
Registration closes on 27 March. To register interest in being part of Kingston, Represent visit sortitionfoundation.org/kingston_2023_represent
