Our engagement principles

Transparency

The public should understand what's being decided, who's deciding it, and how their input will be used.

Accessibility

Engagement should meet people where they are — the right times, places, languages, and formats.

Authenticity

Don't ask for input you're not going to use. Genuine engagement beats performative process.

Documentation

Everything should be documented in a way that demonstrates good faith and legal compliance.
