Why is TasNetworks engaging online?

    While we still enjoy engaging face to face with our customers, not everyone can attend public meetings when they're scheduled. Talking with TasNetworks offers an alternative way to engage. Here's what Talking with TasNetworks can offer:

    *It's a quick and convenient way to have your say on a range of issues and topics, anytime that suits you.

    *With easy access to supporting documentation and resources right there on the project page, you can learn all about the issue and be better informed.

    *You can see what neighbors and other community members think about an issue and offer your own view.

    *It allows for a range of different people, with different views to come together and discuss matters that may impact their community.

    How will my feedback be used?

    As a part of the TasNetworks community, your voice is important. TasNetworks endeavors to makes informed decisions based on the information they have.
