What is voting?

Voting will be held in autumn 2021 on the proposals developed during the co-creation phase. All residents turning 12 years of age or older during the voting year may vote.

At OmaStadi, you may vote for proposals linked to one area of your choice (see the major districts) and for proposals pertaining to all of Helsinki. For example, you can choose your own area (i.e. major district where your residential area is located) or some other area for casting your area-specific vote on the proposals. In addition to this, all voters are automatically able to vote on the proposals covering the entire City. More information about the districts and appropriations can be found in the general instructions.

The voting is linked to the budgeting. Once you have selected your voting area, you can choose as many proposals as the area’s maximum budget allows. A visual representation of the costs will be displayed every time you select a proposal. The vote on the proposals that affect the entirety of Helsinki takes place the same way.
