What this is
CityScroll helps you see what New York City government is doing and what you can do next. It brings related public records together and links to the official city sources behind them. CityScroll is independent. It is not part of city government. For dates, decisions, and instructions, check the official notice.
Find a record, follow a topic, or check the proof behind a link with Using CityScroll. The guide shows which sources we use. It explains gaps in the data, flags, and past patterns.

About our content
CityScroll uses generative artificial intelligence (AI) to draft headings and plain-language explanations. A human reviews and edits this content before it goes live. AI does not create or change the official records shown on the site.
Our flag methods draw on the Open Contracting guide to red flags in public procurement (opens in new tab).
