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.

    We moved here two years ago and it took us months to find out this existed.

    My children’s school is next door; parents have raised it at every meeting.

  • Opinion Jean-Marc S. 2026-06-29

      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

      Proposal

      Proposed solution
      Apply what we learnt on the Rhône: fewer benches, more shade, rota from day one.

      The author would take part in implementation: yes.

      Process & meetings

      Meetings

      No meeting yet.

      Response

      No response published yet. When the responsible organisation answers, it appears here with its status, actions, timeline and next steps — and everyone following is notified.

      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.
