Submit Your Policy Idea!

This page is not for comments or feedback, this page is strictly to list policy ideas or programs that are reasonable and possible to implement at the county that we receive through email from the submission form.

When we receive an email, your idea will be evaluated to see if it is something that will make this list. If it makes this list, then after it reaches 300 votes in favor, the idea will be reviewed by the District 5 Neighborhood Advisory Council for a decision on whether they want to move the item forward through their research process for an evidence-based policy recommendation to Commissioner Emily Bonilla.
