Headline Desk
What Des Plaines's newsrooms are reporting, gathered in one place and linked straight back to them.
Meetings
Every public meeting as an email — video, agenda, and a plain-language digest. Filter by governing body or agenda.
Records requests
Open records requests to local agencies, tracked like a mail thread — outbound asks and the replies that come back.
HoodBuster Video
The meeting-video store — browse the shelves of recorded sessions, VHS-style, and check out what you want to watch.
Town Square
Neighborhood bulletin boards — post, reply, and organize with the people who live where you do.
Yellow Pages
A community phone book on the Meshtastic mesh — look up a node and message it over radio when the internet is down.
