What city-council documents are worthwhile for OG?

David MooreDavid Moore Fri 28 Jun 2013 8:06PMPublicSeen by 8

OG for local Q&A can bring in at least the following gov't documents, in add'n to official information about elected officials, their roles (per Popolo etc.) and jurisdictions ::

  1. City council agendas

  2. City council minutes

  3. Legislative branch objects, as in Councilmatic

a) bills
b) resolutions
c) ordinances
d) communications (where applicable)

  1. Committee reports? Are these things, widely?

For more context, want to support the following cities with question-delivery over email ::

Eight KF resident communities

More KF non-resident communities

At least ten - twelve of the 60 major U.S. cities covered by our API.

Import all avail. city-level leg. documents, like Councilmatic

Cost: lots more data & APIs to maintain for lots of cities nationwide.

Benefit: SEO for city-level bill terms; ability for users to ask questions from a city-level bill page.

Cost: more webpages with bugs or confusing info to misdirect users.

Benefit: more-local impact; tool to potentially vend to city gov't entities for Q&A on leg. objects.

Too much data to support! (This is non-binding of course, haha, just trying the UI.)

I would say that we should take a lean approach to this.

I.e. let's introduce things incrementally and measure how people respond to them rather than deciding now.
