Membership turns NYC's laws, boards and data into answers and alerts

The trackers follow 2,147 local laws since 2014 and all 59 community boards. Membership puts them to work for you: ask them a question and get an answer with every record cited, get an email when something you follow changes, print the facts on your council district before a meeting, and download the data behind any chart. It also funds the reporting, and keeps every post and tracker free for everyone else.

Seven tools that do the reading and watching for you

NYC Council laws · 4 tools

Know what the Council's laws require, and hear when it changes

Ask the Trackers answering a question about Local Law 13 of 2026 with two cited records

Ask the Trackers

Ask about any NYC local law since 2014, an agency's duties, or a council member's bills, in plain English. The answer draws only on the tracker records and links every record it cites.

Find the laws that answer your question without reading 2,147 of them.

The legislation alerts preferences page with trackers and agencies to pick

Legislation alerts

One email a month when a new law, fiscal estimate, upcoming deadline or overdue report touches the agencies, council members, districts and keywords you pick.

Hear about a new duty for an agency you follow, or a late report under your council member's law, without checking the trackers yourself.

A district brief for Council District 3 with its 311 requests by month and top complaint types

District briefs

A printable brief for each of the 51 council districts: 311 requests month by month, the council member's laws and which of their duties are overdue, committees and attendance.

Bring the facts on your district to a community board meeting or a sit-down with your council member.

The watchlist with two agencies and a council member pinned and the laws that changed for them

Watchlist

Pin agencies, council members and laws, then see their new laws, fiscal estimates, deadlines and overdue reports from the last month, the last 90 days, or since your last visit.

Follow everything you care about on one page instead of filtering three trackers.
