The app is a reader for this site: your own town's latest issue first, each town's archive, every address in the news with a search across all 6 towns, and the meetings coming up and just held. It can tell you in the morning when your town has a new issue, and put the headline on your Home Screen. It shows the same issues you can read here, written the same way — see how this newsletter is made.
The app collects no data. It fetches the newsletters from this site and nothing else. It has no account, no sign-in, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking of any kind. Nothing about you, your device or what you read is sent to us or to anyone else; the issues you have opened are kept only on your device so they open without a connection.
What you choose in the app stays on your device: the towns you call yours, the places you follow, and whether you asked for notifications. Notifications are made on your device: the app checks this site in the background and compares what it finds with what you have already seen. There is no push service and no list of who is notified. Adding a meeting to your calendar opens the system's own new-event sheet; the app never reads your calendar.
Links in a story (source documents, meeting videos, maps) open the town's or the video host's own website, which has its own privacy policy.
This site itself is a static site with no analytics or cookies.
Questions, problems with the app, or an error in an issue: email pedram.navid@gmail.com. Corrections to published issues are listed on each town's corrections page; name-removal requests from private individuals are honored by default.
The app is open source, in the ai-tools repository.
