Bids, zoning, vendors, budgets and votes, answered with a source for every fact.
Who it serves
Every firm that does business with local government needs to know what is coming.
Villages and cities decide in public, but the decisions are buried in packets, minutes and hours of video. We connect the dots across that record so the people whose work depends on it are better informed.
Developers and builders
Follow every rezoning, site plan and conditional use, and learn how the Plan Commission has treated projects like yours.
Lawyers and land use counsel
Pull the exact motion, the conditions attached and the ordinance that governs, across every community where your clients build.
Engineers and consultants
Track capital plans years ahead, see which firms hold each utility's work, and walk into the next proposal already briefed.
Lenders and public finance
Watch borrowing plans, TIF districts and budget pressure as boards debate them, long before an offering document appears.
Energy and site selection
Know where data centers, solar and large loads are welcome, where moratoria are pending, and who on the board will decide.
How teams use it
One question replaces a week of reading packets.
Bids and contracts
Every request for proposals, award and renewal, with the vote, the price and the other bidders when the record names them.
Vendor profiles
Everything a village has paid a company by year and account, its competitors in the same accounts, and every decision that names it.
Approval paths
The code that applies, the bodies that review, their next meetings, and how past applicants fared and why.
Capital plans
Every planned project with its cost by year and funding, tied to the board actions and bids that move it forward.
Votes and positions
How each trustee and commissioner has voted, which motions split, and who moves the items that matter to you.
