What is Citizens' View?

Citizens’ View is a panel of Calgarians who want to be involved in City improvements. Participants can provide input through online surveys and discussions. Information collected through Citizens’ View will be used as one source of input to City decision making. 

Citizens’ View is open to all Calgarians 18 years of age and older.
