Why Accountable Counties

Across the state, county commissioners, planning and zoning committees, and developers are making big decisions without public knowledge or input. 

The meetings may be public and notices posted, but community members are often not aware of the larger goals of small zoning or ordinance changes. 

We want to change that.

Take Action

Read. Share.

The goal of this site is to hold county leaders accountable to residents through easy-to-access information like meeting minutes, upcoming agendas, and calls to action.  

This information already exists. Accountable Counties simply makes it easier to find and  understand. We hope it helps important information reach more constituents.
