Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A public-accountability project cataloguing records, deadlines, and rule-checklists for Texas special districts.

Landing page captured for the 2026-11-09 issue.
For
Texas residents who want to inspect their special districts
Worth noticing
The district table separates checklist results, records requests, records, and whether a “Responsible Resident” is assigned.

Field notes

The district table separates checklist counts from records-request status and includes a field for a “Responsible Resident.” In the visible entries, many checklist results remain unknown, while records requests are often shown as drafts. The address lookup area says it uses the US Census geocoder and does not store addresses; that is a statement on the page, not independently verified here.
