WATCHDOG Citizen Journalist Project
Shining a Light on Local Government
Local boards and commissions make important decisions about schools, water, housing, policing, zoning, parks, transportation, and more. Many of these meetings go uncovered - even though they affect ALL of us.
The Citizen Journalist Project provides clear, neutral, accessible summaries of these meetings so our community can stay informed, engaged, and empowered.
Transparency and accountability begin with paying attention.
