This guide explains what each of the CONSUL sections are for and how they work.
In the citizen debates section you can present and share your opinion with other people on issues of concern to you related to the city. It is also a place to generate ideas that through the other sections of CONSUL lead to concrete actions by the City Council.
In the citizen proposals section you can make proposals for the City Council to carry them out. The proposals require support, and if they reach sufficient support, they are put to a public vote. The proposals approved in these citizens' votes are accepted by the City Council and carried out.
The participative budgets section helps people make a direct decision on what part of the municipal budget is spent on.
The polls section is activated each time a proposal reaches 1% support and goes to the vote or when the City Council proposes an issue for people to decide on.
In the processes section, citizens participate in the drafting and modification of regulations affecting the city and can give their opinion on municipal policies in previous debates.
