Preparing your municipal transparency platform...
Every two weeks, 5 elected officials vote on your rent, your streets, and your neighborhood — usually without hearing from you.
Every Thursday · what Council decided + what's coming up next
The Basics
West Hollywood City Council is your city's legislative body. They pass budgets, set zoning rules, and make policy — all in public meetings that most residents never attend.
What gets built, how tall, and where — new housing, permits, and demolitions.
How $100M+ in tax dollars gets divided between parks, police, roads, and services.
Rent stabilization rules, eviction protections, and tenant assistance programs.
Who gets city contracts worth millions, and who sits on commissions that shape policy.
By law, agendas must be posted at least 72 hours before a meeting. That's your window to read what's coming, submit a comment, and be heard before the vote. Civic Summary notifies you the moment a new agenda drops.
