Why not the city’s agenda emails?

Only your item, not every agenda

A city list emails each agenda for the whole board. We email once, when the street or project you named is on one.

Plain words, no sign-ups

No account and no board to pick from a menu. Say the street or the developer; we read the agenda text for it.

Pay once

$2.99 covers 3 months, $7.99 a year. Nothing renews, so there is no bill waiting after the hearing.

First month free.

An introductory offer while we’re new: start any watch free for a month, no card. When it ends, watch again, free while the offer lasts, or for a longer term. Pay once: no subscription, no auto-renew.

Questions

How soon will I hear?

Not in real time. We check about once a day, and agendas usually post 5 to 14 days before a meeting. You hear within a day or two of the agenda going up, which leaves time to write in or show up.

Which cities can you read?

Cities whose agendas are on Legistar, PrimeGov, CivicClerk, Granicus, BoardDocs or a CivicPlus Agenda Center we read item by item or from the agenda PDF. Elsewhere we use a daily web search. Before you pay, setup runs the check and shows what it can see for your city.

Can you watch every rezoning near my house?

Name the street, the project, the applicant or the parcel, and the board, such as the plan commission or the zoning board of appeals. We can’t draw a circle around an address on an agenda.

What about building permits?

A rezoning, variance or conditional use that goes before a board shows up on its agenda. For a permit issued at the counter, ask for permits on the street instead: we read the city’s own permit list in more than 60 places, and search the web everywhere else.

What counts as a match?

The brief you approve says so. Usually it is a new agenda listing your street or project. Minutes, a hearing already held and a mention in the news don’t count.

What happens after the first email?

We keep watching. The next agenda that lists it, like the council vote after the plan commission, gets its own email, at most one a day and up to 10, until your term ends. Nothing renews by itself.
