The Angers inhabitants waited in the next "districts meetings"

The "partici-pative democracy" Angers promotes since 2011 is on the way back. From October 10th, the second edition of the annual gathering of Angers districts will start. These public meetings in the ten districts of Angers are designed to give to the inhabitants an opportunity to express ideas and describe experiences about the life of their close environment. In 2011, more than a thousand people participated.

All the daily aspects of life in these districts can be discussed : "transports, urbanism, place for youth" are some of the points quoted by the city. It seems these meetings are also an opporunity for Angers representatives to stay in touch with inhabitants. "We need you to make the public action more efficient and to take up challenges facing the city", says the Angers mayor.This one and his deputy mayor in charge of each district will take part to these conferences organized - most of them but not all - on the evenings.

Apparently vague, the association of citizens to the choices which concern them is in fact precisely organized. Every person may be candidate to a workshop on specific issues. Some of them may even join the district councils. All that work could later be very useful when municipal polls will take place in 2014. But, who is going to complain?
