Why do we need to inform you about the decisions made by Town Council?

1- Municipal council meetings allow citizens to follow the deliberations and decisions made by their elected representatives, thereby promoting transparency in the decision-making process, and ensuring a degree of accountability on the part of elected officials to their constituents.

2- By watching the meetings, citizens can better understand the problems, projects and issues affecting their local community, staying informed about municipal developments and initiatives.

3- Some people watch council meetings to feel more involved in their community's affairs, which can inspire more active participation.

4- Citizens can use information from meetings to express their opinions and ask questions, strengthening the bond between elected officials and the population.

5- Watching council meetings can be an opportunity for civic education, enabling citizens to learn more about how local government works, democratic processes and decision-making mechanisms.
