As a resident of Opsterland, you can give your opinion on matters on which the municipal council meets. At the agenda items of the orientation council meeting, citizens can usually address the council members. This is called public participation. If you would like to speak to council members about a topic that is not on the agenda, please contact the clerk. The council's agenda committee will then consider the most appropriate way to share your information with the council.
