See your website the way residents and the rules do.
A free, person-reviewed checkup of your municipal website: meeting notices, minutes, how to request records, and whether your posted documents work for residents who use screen readers. A short report, in your inbox within two business days.
The parts of a municipal website that a statute or federal rule actually speaks to.
Meeting notices and minutes
Whether a resident can find upcoming meetings, special meeting notices, agendas, and minutes, and how current they are. Michigan checks follow the Open Meetings Act; Wisconsin checks follow Wis. Stat. 19.84.
How residents request records
Michigan: whether your FOIA procedures and written public summary are on the site, as MCL 15.234(4) asks of a body with a website. Wisconsin: your 19.34 public records notice. Both: who to contact and whether a request can start online.
Your posted documents and the accessibility rule
We sample your PDFs for scanned, image-only files that screen readers cannot read, and run automated checks on key pages. Under the current DOJ rule, local governments under 50,000 have until April 26, 2028; larger ones, April 26, 2027.
What the report is, and what it is not
It is a snapshot of what we could find on your public website, with the rule behind each item quoted from the official source. It is written for the clerk, in plain language, and it never grades you.
It is not legal advice, and automated tools cannot certify accessibility. Some items may live where a scan cannot see them, such as behind a search box or at your office, so “we did not locate it” never means “it does not exist.” Your report goes to you alone. We never publish it or name your municipality.
