In previous years, citizens were able to have their say on the city's finances through Frankfurt's participatory budgeting. But proposals could only be submitted within about four weeks of each year. Now, all Frankfurt residents can contribute their ideas for shaping the city and support the ideas of others throughout the year.
Workflow of the procedure:
- Hand in your ideas on www.ffm.de (also possible via mail, fax and phone)
- 8-week window to get support for your ideas from the date of publication on the Internet
- Find at least 200 supporters (support is possible via this website, via mail, fax or phone)
- Evaluation of successful ideas and decision by the magistrate
- Report on decision on this website, to the author if the idea and the city council
Here's how it works:
In the future, citizens will be able to submit ideas and contact the city with suggestions and proposals in the general interest all year round.
