Corrections policy
Docket.pub indexes thousands of records automatically, and some of them will be wrong. If you spot an error, we want to fix it.
Anything that doesn't match the source
A wrong vote tally, a misattributed sponsor, a misread dollar amount, an item linked to the wrong meeting, a council member's term shown incorrectly — anything that doesn't match the original public document.
Editorial summaries are generated from the source text and may paraphrase imperfectly. If a summary materially misrepresents what an item or meeting was about, that's an error too.
Open an issue or send a note
The fastest way to report an error is to open an issue on GitHub ↗. Please include a link to the page you saw the error on and, where possible, a link to the original source document so we can verify.
If GitHub isn't an option, email hello@docket.pub.
We fix it, or we explain why we can't
If the source document supports the correction, the record is updated. If the underlying public document is itself incorrect or ambiguous, the discrepancy is preserved and annotated rather than rewritten — docket.pub does not silently reconcile disagreements between sources.
