Public meeting recordings where policy is actually debated and decided — transcribed for searchable, timestamped citations.
Outside accounts of city decisions — local newspapers, radio, blogs, and beat publications scraped from HTML.
Independent profiles, replication guides, and case studies from foundations and decarbonization coalitions.
