How this district spends its service fund
Each council district controls a Council District Service Fund — money the member directs to local projects like extra police overtime, sidewalk fixes, ditch cleaning, or park events. These are the actual line items from the city's published dashboards, FY2015 through FY2026. Try searching a word like "sidewalk" or "camera" to see what your fund bought.
