This Solutions Brief, sponsored by Zencity, provides a quick overview on how local government leaders can get their councilmembers to say yes with resident feedback data. While there are several means to extract resident feedback data, a singular or anecdotal data source may not always provide a good enough account in order to make an informed decision. In this brief, you'll explore which resident feedback data sources are readily available to local leaders, what inherent challenges managers face when incorporating feedback data into policy making, and, finally, how you can use this data to guide council in a more data-driven direction.
