Engagement
Our engagement services provide a structured, transparent, and inclusive process that brings Council, stakeholders, and the public meaningfully into planning and decision-making. We design and deliver a full suite of engagement activities from early visioning workshops and broad-reach community surveys to public open houses and Council hearing support that are all aligned with IAP2 best practices. Our approach ensures clear objectives, accessible materials, and consistent communication at every milestone, supported by professional documentation that demonstrates how input is gathered, considered, and integrated into final recommendations or plans.

Experience Can Make A Difference
Public Consultation is a collaborative process that ensures community members have meaningful opportunities to participate in shaping local plans, policies, and development decisions. Whether through workshops, open houses, surveys, stakeholder interviews, or digital engagement tools, our approach is tailored to each municipality’s unique context and communication needs. Effective engagement strengthens understanding, builds trust, and helps decision-makers anticipate community priorities and concerns. Our team brings extensive experience in designing and delivering engagement programs that meet Alberta’s legislative requirements while fostering informed, constructive dialogue. BASE provides the people, tools, and expertise needed to create transparent processes and long-lasting community support.
Indigenous Consultation recognizes the rights, knowledge, and perspectives of Indigenous communities and ensures their voices are meaningfully incorporated into municipal planning and project development. Our approach focuses on respectful relationship-building and early, ongoing communication with Indigenous governments, organizations, and rights holders. We work with communities to understand their values, traditional land uses, and cultural considerations while aligning with provincial and federal consultation expectations. BASE’s team has experience facilitating conversations, documenting input, and integrating Indigenous perspectives into plans and technical studies in a way that honours cultural protocols and supports collaborative outcomes. We are committed to fostering respectful partnerships that contribute to more inclusive, informed, and sustainable projects.
