In fact I had already proposed a session on how local governments can see open data as policy instrument to reach their own goals / save money. (Using open data e.g. as the object of interaction with citizens. new ways of working need new instruments, ogd being one of them).

This would be exploring how cities can create open data policies, what are the blockages and also how can open data be encouraged in smaller communities - ownership, participation etc.
