How this works. Items come from public documents (agendas, minutes, state road data, official releases). Software screens each item against our rules and publishes those that pass; a person reviews what runs afterward and can pull any item. Agendas describe what will be considered, not what passed. We add no names beyond what an official release or the outlet published. Corrections: message the Somerset Now Facebook Page.
