User Guidance
Quick Start: Use filters and search to explore City of Harrah records across multiple years. Start broad, then narrow.
1) What This App Is For
This app helps users explore City meeting history, decisions, and patterns over time. It is designed for civic understanding—not as an official record system.
2) Navigating the App
- Use filters to narrow by year, topic, speaker, or meeting type
- Use search for keywords or names
- Open entries to view additional context and notes
3) Understanding the Fields
- Cleaned Dialogue / Action: summarized for readability
- Topic / Keywords: aids searching and pattern detection
- Context / Notes: explains why an entry matters
4) Researching a Topic
Filter by topic, review multiple years, and look for recurring themes. Patterns often matter more than individual entries.
5) Names & Public Records
Names originate from public records and are included for historical accuracy only. Inclusion does not imply endorsement or wrongdoing.
6) Responsible Use
Verify important details using original records and avoid selective or misleading use of summaries.
7) Feedback & Corrections
