Why This Matters

Opaque systems are unaccountable systems. The goal is not to fight every decision but to expose the process that produces them.

What This Looks Like in Practice

  • Track every executive session topic and frequency.
  • Publish plain‑language summaries of council packets.
  • Document voting blocs and patterns over time.
  • Translate staff reports into “what this actually does.”

What This Changes

Opacity becomes harder to maintain. The public gains the context needed to challenge decisions effectively.
