Grading transparency
Just noticing this article from SF on local government transparency.... I wondered what our grade is from this group grading local governments on usefulness of their web pages. All I find on Pittsburgh is this which seems to say it's an I for incomplete or that the review is incomplete?? Who knows?
Anyway... more on government transparency here on Monday. Why spoil a nice weekend with any nattering.
addendum micronatter: I just noticed that in addition to the page for the city linked above they have also poked at the Allegheny County Web page and give it a B-... which isn't the worst of grades. It also has something I can't even figure where they found it on the county web site... They seem to care a lot about lobbying issues and have found the time series for county lobbying expenditures. A peak was 2005. And they have detail on which agencies or authorities were expending money on lobbying.
