Your Block gives residents one place to ask about development in your town, and gives your staff one place to answer from the documents already on file.
Email, voicemail, the front counter, a council member’s forward, a Facebook thread. Your Block gives residents one place to ask in their own words, and it groups the same question asked different ways. Your staff sees six topics instead of 94 messages.
