Public Input

Release Date: Tuesday, January 18th 2011

The National Capital Planning Commission (NCPC) is so open—and serious—about its new Open Government Plan that the federal agency’s proposal is available for all to peruse and comment on by March 11.

The plan will guide NCPC’s efforts to increase transparency, public participation and collaboration as spelled out in President Obama's Open Government Directive, a mandate designed to make executive departments and agencies more accountable, transparent, receptive and effective.

The NCPC plan is available at www.ncpc.gov and outlines several initiatives that will give the public better access to agency records and data and use technology to provide new means of engagement. To share your comments and votes, click here to visit NCPC’s new online forum.

The feedback will help develop the agency’s final plan, available in the spring.
