Where the data comes from

• City website: https://council.nola.gov/
• Agendas and meeting calendar: https://cityofno.granicus.com/ViewPublisher.php?view_id=2
• Meeting video: Official YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@NOLACityCouncil (council); Granicus archive https://cityofno.granicus.com (planning commission view_id=2 is Granicus only)
• Official City Council minutes (Legistar, https://cityofno.legistar.com/Calendar.aspx) for September 3, October 1 and October 15, 2026 were added on 2026-10-24: https://cityofno.legistar1.com/cityofno/meetings/2026/9/1041_M_City_Council_26-09-03_MINUTES.pdf, https://cityofno.legistar1.com/cityofno/meetings/2026/10/1016_M_City_Council_26-10-01_MINUTES.pdf and https://cityofno.legistar1.com/cityofno/meetings/2026/10/1042_M_City_Council_26-10-15_MINUTES.pdf
• Officials, agendas and video lists were collected from these official sources on 2026-10-22; meeting content comes from the transcripts as they are processed.

Data quality notes

• Video dates for YouTube streams inferred by matching titles/upload dates to the council.nola.gov calendar (titles carry no dates); Oct 15 regular-meeting video is the best match, not certain.
• Agenda content not retrieved for most non-council meetings; CPC and Board of Zoning Adjustments agendas could not be downloaded (Granicus AgendaViewer request failed).
• Mayor and other councilmember district assignments not verified.
• No Nov 8-22 meetings posted besides Nov 5.
• Video for 2026-09-23 special meeting and 10/15 'Evan McFarland Proclamation' stream omitted (date unclear).
• No committee minutes are posted yet; the September 3 and October 1 meetings have no video transcript processed, and the October 1 video captions are pending.
• The minutes record motions and votes but not debate; house numbers and applicant names for residential appeals are left out of Issue pages.
• Some caption-based details on the October 15 page differ from the minutes (for example Docket 89-26 is a four-unit multi-family request on Kerlerec Street); the minutes are used where they differ.
