Last night's county commission meeting: 4 hours, 11 agenda items, 3 members of the public. They approved a $40M road bond with less discussion than my family uses to pick a pizza topping. Your local government is where your money actually lives. Show up.

Tonight's planning commission denied a 40-unit building because of 'neighborhood character,' then spent 20 minutes complaining rents are too high. I'm not saying the two agenda items were related. I'm saying they were the same agenda item.

County-level broadband map update: 61% of my district now has fiber access, up from 34% in 2023. The buildout money is WORKING and nobody's campaign is mentioning it because it passed with both parties' votes and therefore benefits no one's narrative. Receipts at the source.

Pulled the permit data myself: our city approved 1,100 housing units in 2019 and 340 in 2025, while rents rose 38%. Whatever your theory of the housing crisis, it has to survive contact with this chart. Dataset public at the source.

Does anyone else's county livestream its meetings and then delete the archive after 30 days? Trying to figure out if this is normal records practice or something worth a public-comment fight. What does your locality do?
