Source library

Find the source before filing the next request.

Search City Council packets, budgets, policies, source notes, and official records first. Then use the source note to decide what is public, what is pending, and what still needs a clean .

The May 29 denial follow-up is listed as a sanitized public summary only; full correspondence, headers, and petition work product remain out of public results.

Identify the public body

Match the issue to the city, county, board, office, or custodian most likely to hold it.

Submit the missing record

If the trail goes cold, turn the gap into the next request or workspace note.
