What is your town actually deciding?
We read the agendas, minutes, and documents from your local government's public meetings and turn them into plain-English summaries — each one linked back to the official record.
We hold 1,948,155 meeting records from 6,605 US cities, counties and school districts — 46,445 upcoming — city council, boards, and commissions — with agendas in plain English. Every summary links back to the official record; here is exactly how. A sibling of The Boring Parts.
This is not every local-government meeting in the country, and it is not a representative sample of them. Coverage follows what each government publishes: 5,480 of those 6,605 places posted a meeting in the last 30 days, and the rest are quieter, seasonal, or on a portal we have not caught up with. Every place and every gap is listed.
