Citizen Engagement Charter

The Town of Erin is committed to creating a vibrant and future-ready community. Meaningful citizen
engagement is critical to the process. Members of the public must feel they have been included and
have the opportunity to voice their thoughts and ideas on programs and services that directly affect
them. Following the Town’s Citizen Engagement Survey, it was identified that surveys are the most
preferred means by which residents would like to provide information and stay involved in Town
initiatives, surveys give staff the opportunity to track and receive information from residents. The
Citizen Engagement Charter is a commitment between Town staff, elected representatives and the
public to engage in an effective and positive manner to guide growth for the Town in the years to
come.
This Citizen Engagement Charter outlines the importance of local government and Town staff
working and communicating with the public to create a fully democratic and participative
environment.
