Operating system for small towns, school boards, HOAs, water districts, and library boards. Public meetings, public notices, a citizen issues board, and FOIA-style record requests — built on the same primitives the rest of Turtini runs on.
Operating system for small towns, school boards, HOAs, water districts, and library boards. Public meetings, public notices, a citizen issues board, and FOIA-style record requests.

Public meetings: agenda, minutes, vote record per item, public/executive session split
Public notices: dated announcements with optional attachments and required-by dates
Citizen issues board: residents post + upvote; staff triage and assign to a meeting
Public records (FOIA / sunshine-law) intake — requester portal + response deadlines + published-response archive
Cross-references Mutual Aid emergency declarations and transparent benchmarks
Verifiable public-record PDFs (Verified-by-Turtini QR + SHA-256) for every published artifact
About this module
Most local government runs on Word docs, manila folders, and a Wix site that hasn't been updated since 2019. Civic OS gives small-government bodies a serious operating system without enterprise-software pricing: public meetings with agendas + minutes + per-item vote records, public notices with required-by dates, a citizen issues board (post + upvote → staff triage), and FOIA-style record requests with response-deadline tracking.
Mutual Aid emergency declarations and transparent benchmarks cross-reference automatically. The whole thing is public-readable by default — transparency is the floor, not a stretch goal.
What you can do with it
Publish next Tuesday's town council meeting agenda + livestream link
Track public-notice required-by dates so the legal-publication window never slips
Triage 30 citizen issue submissions per week from the public board
Process a FOIA request with a clear response deadline + published response archive
