Field notes
The homepage organizes civic coverage into recurring formats: a project ledger, budget comparisons, a glossary, and a monthly disaster-preparedness memo. It says the ledger is updated on the first Saturday of each month and that its figures draw on agency evaluations and assembly materials. The editorial note describes same-page corrections and a three-day fact-checking start for requests accompanied by supporting documents; these are stated policies, not independently verified here.
