What this is: Community idea

Written by residents. It carries no official status.

Who decides: Nobody has decided anything yet. A community idea can become a recommendation through a group or assembly; only the organisation with authority can make an authorised decision, and it must record it here.

          How this is calculated. Only statements (arguments, concerns, alternatives, suggestions, common ground) can be weighed, once per person, as agree, disagree or unsure. Shares are of the people who responded to that statement — not of residents, and not of everyone on the platform. Popularity is not truth: a statement with broad agreement can still be wrong, and a minority concern can be decisive. Nothing here is a vote or a decision. Full methodology

          Response

          Illustrative response — shows how a response appears once received; not the position of a real authority.

          Services of the city of Le Havre — example response interface Under review 2026-09-08

          Illustrative response: the service is examining feasibility and cost and has asked for photos and usage information from residents.

          Proposed or requested action
          Keep the initiative updated and share photos of the site.
          Timeline & follow-up
          Status update within six weeks.
          Next step
          Feasibility check → answer published here → next step agreed with the team.

          The chain: public contribution → responsible organisation → review → response → action → implementation → outcome. A response is not a decision unless it is recorded as one by the organisation with authority.

          Implementation

          Implementation has not started. It follows a decision or recommendation and a responsible team.

          Outcome

          No outcome yet. When it is completed, the outcome is documented here: what was asked, answered, built and learnt.
