Participating budgets (sorry, I am sure there is a better name for this) are on a rise in Portuguese cities, putting back a (small) part of those cities budgets on the hands of the voters. Though the amount is relativelly small (you can see it in the Cascais example I am linking this post to), it gives an empowering sensation to tax payers - and the possibility to head start projects that they feel important for their areas. Now... don't forget to take part on them!
