Govipedia’s map of who handles what in government
Govipedia presents a plain-language, community-maintained map linking public needs to the offices, people, and processes responsible for them.
- For
- Residents, local officials, clerks, and civic groups
- Worth noticing
- The page says machines may flag changed phone trees, ordinances, or forms, but that nothing publishes without a source and human confirmation.
Field notes
The page frames the map as a way to follow a practical problem across agency boundaries, from the responsible office to the steps involved and any failed handoff. It also proposes plain-language accounts of decisions, deadlines, and meetings, with source links. The project says its roots go back to RealGov.com in 2009; its next stated step is choosing pilot communities. A sample-city preview is visible, but the supplied evidence does not show the extent of live coverage.
