We should deliberate and decide what positions to take on important issues together with the Councillor who represents us in community assemblies open. These community decisions should be seen as binding mandates guiding the actions of our Councillor, the public positions they take, and what they vote for in Council.
We should hear back from our Councillor regularly how they have tried to implement community mandates. Being accountable means that they explain what they have done, what could be achieved and what could not be achieved with reasons.
