What our members say about us

"I just wanted to drop a line and say how amazing the zoning changes filter on the Ordinances page has been working for me. The summary portion, especially, has been a real time-saver. This way, I don't have to open the entire Councilmatic document to know what's being proposed. Great stuff!"
