Wow, October was SO busy at The Chronicles, I’m glad I had two dozen unpaid interns available and working 20-hour days!

We chronicled:

7 council meetings

In 6 states and 1 province

With a combined population of

892,900 people

We saw

A roomful of councilors conspire to shut off the camera

8 minutes of pure unadulterated agenda-reading

1 nervous employee under fire

1 council member’s phone blow up a meeting

5 podcast interviews from Arizona to New York

1 public radio station feature City Council Chronicles

And it all happened thanks to these titans of civic engagement:

Gadsden, Alabama city council

Harrisburg, Pennsylvania city council

Grand Forks, British Columbia city council

Revere, Massachusetts city council

Mesa, Arizona city council

Spokane, Washington city council

Mission, Texas city council
