Got Tips?

Help us find out what's happening in your local government.

You go to the meetings, read the mail from school and pay the tax bill. If something caught your eye, we'd like to hear about it.

What we're looking for

Meeting moments worth clipping

Did someone say something at a meeting that more people should hear? Tell us which meeting and about when it happened.

Budget or spending questions

See a number that looks odd, or wonder where the money for something went? Ask. We'll dig into the budget papers.

School board and county decisions

A vote coming up, a rule that changed, a decision that surprised you. Point us to it.

Public records and FOIA leads

Know of a public record that would help explain something? Tell us what it is and who keeps it.

Corrections to our pages

Did we get something wrong? Please tell us. We'd rather fix it than leave it up.

  1. STEP 1

    We read it

    A real person reads every tip.

  2. STEP 2

    We check it

    We look at the meeting video, the budget papers and other public records.

    We use what holds up

    A good tip might become a clip, a meeting recap note or a fix to one of our pages.

  4. STEP 4

    We may write back

    If you left a way to reach you, we may ask a follow-up question.
