![Page 3: Local Citizen Panels (CP) – A Means to Broad and Sustainable Citizen Participation Dr. Kai Masser – Citizens based budgeting – Promoting “sound” regional.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e1a5503460f94b06da2/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Kai Masser - Local Citizen Panels
Four Inevitable Principles
• Representativeness: Accurate picture of the population of the city (age, sex, education)
• Openness: Everyone can join in • Low threshold: Not much time needed and
no specific knowledge or competence; no further obligations nor duties
• Flexibility: More intensive participation measures can be added; with support by CP
![Page 4: Local Citizen Panels (CP) – A Means to Broad and Sustainable Citizen Participation Dr. Kai Masser – Citizens based budgeting – Promoting “sound” regional.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e1a5503460f94b06da2/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
To meet all four requirements at the same time..
.. a special CP/survey design was needed

The Speyer „CP Model“
• Regular Citizen‘s Surveys (2 or more a year):– Closed channel: Representative random
sample / with PINs– Open channel: The surveys are announced to
the public via every possible way (news papers, radio, tv, city hompage, flyers etc.pp.). Every citizen can join in (preferably via www)

• CP Membership:– Every participant can register (e-Mail or postal
address) as a CP Member. CP members get information about the survey results and every forthcoming survey
– CP members are also invited to other CP activities, e.g. survey result presentations and discussions, the development of questionnaires (for the forthcoming surveys) and
– Other forms of citizen‘s participation

Opportunity
• Representative (only) “Online-Surveys”
• Based on the CP-Members and
• An adequate weighting of cases
• “Volunteers” are still welcome
• But the “system” has to be calibrated, that is
• After three or four years a new representative sample is necessary
![Page 8: Local Citizen Panels (CP) – A Means to Broad and Sustainable Citizen Participation Dr. Kai Masser – Citizens based budgeting – Promoting “sound” regional.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e1a5503460f94b06da2/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

• Feedback:– Not only the CP members are informed about the
survey results, but also the broader public via the (local) press
– All responsible official bodies (councils, offices and boards) should take note of the survey results and discuss them. The public should be informed about the outcome of these discussions
– If possible or necessary, officials should discuss the results and subsequent measures with citizens

There is a problem to carry out infrastructure projects on all levels of government.
e.g. Speyer: The extension of the „very“ regional airport
![Page 16: Local Citizen Panels (CP) – A Means to Broad and Sustainable Citizen Participation Dr. Kai Masser – Citizens based budgeting – Promoting “sound” regional.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e1a5503460f94b06da2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Another „funny“ story:
The „Boss-Company” (Clothing) wants to build a new logistic centre near Stuttgart
![Page 17: Local Citizen Panels (CP) – A Means to Broad and Sustainable Citizen Participation Dr. Kai Masser – Citizens based budgeting – Promoting “sound” regional.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e1a5503460f94b06da2/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

The Problem:
• Large, ugly building
• Lot of traffic (Trucks)
• Very few employees (not much (new) jobs)

Two cities where in competition• Metzingen:
– Citizens initiative against the project
– Major promoted the project
– A public petition came to a
– Citizens decision!– The project was
refused– The Major dismissed!
• Nürtingen:
– Citizens initiative against the project
– Major promoted the project
– Public petition with an Citizens decision in sight
– The global economic crisis came:
– The Boss-Company was not interested any more
– The Major is still in charge!

However
It is important to involve citizens
A new approach, not only in Metzingen
![Page 20: Local Citizen Panels (CP) – A Means to Broad and Sustainable Citizen Participation Dr. Kai Masser – Citizens based budgeting – Promoting “sound” regional.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e1a5503460f94b06da2/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)

Metzingen / Economic Region (Municipality and neighbour districts)
• How to use the area (planned for the “Boss” plant) now?
• It’s the only possible area in the region to build up new trade or industry plants..

CP interrogating enterprises & citizens synchronized
• Enterprises:– Does your company
wants to expand?– Do you need more/
new surface area?– Which use?– What effects: volume
of traffic (trucks), emissions etc.?
– Can we help you?
• Citizens:• Positive Effects:
– Jobs– Economic streng-
thening of the region (income, diversity etc.)
• Negative Effects– More traffic, Noise– Pollution (Ecology)– etc.

Tuttlingen / Region (Municipality and neighbour districts)
• Development of public (regional) transport
• Not only by involving the “usual suspects”, e.g. companies, administrations, parties, unions and other interest (“pressure”) groups but also
• The Citizens (representatively)
![Page 23: Local Citizen Panels (CP) – A Means to Broad and Sustainable Citizen Participation Dr. Kai Masser – Citizens based budgeting – Promoting “sound” regional.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56649e1a5503460f94b06da2/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)

Twofold concept
1. Representative Citizens Survey about• Opinions• Satisfaction• Wishes
& • The willingness to
enrol in further activities
2. (Further) participative activities
• “Face to Face” Meetings (“Workshops / Conferences”) which
• Help to develop a new strategy for public transport in the region
