    What happens to my contribution?

    All comments, ideas and feedback are collated and used to inform Council decision making processes for the development of strategies, planning policies and proposals, programs and activities. 

    The feedback we receive online is used in conjunction with feedback we receive from other methods such as events, workshops, drop-in information sessions or submissions.

    This is usually compiled into an engagement report which is usually made available on Your Say Forbes and also presented to Council. Identifying information such as names and addresses are not included. 

    How are online discussions moderated?

    Your Say Forbes provides opportunities for anyone who would like to discuss projects Forbes Shire Council is engaging on, ask questions and share opinions. 

    If you post something that is unrelated to the topic then it may be removed in order to keep the thread on track, so keep it relevant. 

    Anything offensive or malicious - as outlined in the Moderation Policy - will be removed.
