City hall
Sample story: replace this with your first real one
One sentence that says what happened and why a neighbor should care. This line becomes the share preview text.
Open with the single most important fact. One sentence, plain words. What happened?
Second paragraph: what it means for the reader. Keep paragraphs to two or three sentences so they hold up when someone copies them into a Facebook or Nextdoor post.
What the vote was
Lay out the facts in order. Name who voted, what passed, what it costs, and when it takes effect. Link every claim you can to the agenda, the minutes, or the recording.
What happens next
Tell readers the next date that matters and how they can weigh in, with the address or link for doing it.
