How it works

  1. 01

    Read

    We check every covered council, planning commission, board and hearing officer three times a day, and more often the week of a meeting. We read only what agencies publish, and follow each site's crawler rules.

  2. 02

    Extract

    Each land-use item becomes a short, structured brief: what's proposed, where, by whom, the staff recommendation and the outcome. Every fact carries a citation to the page it came from.

  3. 03

    Check

    Automated checks compare every summary against its sources, and an editor reviews each item before it's published. Corrections go out as fast as we can make them.

  4. 04

    Deliver

    Instant alerts for the parcels, places, people and project types you follow, a daily digest, and a weekly brief, for one county or several.

For cities and agencies

Your public record, easier to find and easier to follow

Clerks and planners publish a great deal that the public never finds. LandUseWire sends readers straight to your official documents, so they arrive at the hearing knowing what's on the agenda.

  • Published records only

    We read agendas, minutes and staff reports you've already made public. We never submit forms, log in or touch anything that isn't published.

  • A polite, identified crawler

    It names itself, follows robots.txt and crawl delays, makes one request at a time with pauses, and never downloads a document twice. How it works.

  • Every item links back to you

    Each brief cites your agenda and staff report by page and links to the official copy, which stays the record.

  • Corrections, fast

    See something wrong or out of date? Write to hello@landusewire.com and we'll fix it.

Want your agency covered in full detail? A feed, API access or a crawler allowance lets us read your staff reports directly. The coverage page lists what would help for each agency.

Our standards

Sourced

Every fact is cited to the page it came from. If the record doesn't say it, neither do we.

Neutral

Plain English and no advocacy: we report what's proposed and what was decided, not what anyone should think of it.

Reviewed

Automated fact checks and a human editor before anything is published, and corrections when we miss.

Know what's coming before the hearing.
