النص الإنجليزي: Explore housing across city records

النص الإنجليزي: Step 1 — Search for housing

النص الإنجليزي: Open the CityScroll front page, type housing in the search box and press بحث. Search needs JavaScript switched on. No account or email address is needed. The results page shows your word and groups such as العقود, People + organizations, الأراضي, القواعد, الاجتماعات, and الامتحانات. Counts vary with the published records.

النص الإنجليزي: Step 2 — Open an agency result

النص الإنجليزي: In People + organizations, select an agency title, such as Housing Preservation and Development when it appears. The agency page names the agency and groups its connected records by kind. If this group is empty, try another agency-related word in the search field.

النص الإنجليزي: Step 3 — Compare a rule result

النص الإنجليزي: Use your browser's Back button to return to the housing search. In القواعد, read a result's match explanation. A passage match quotes the published sentence containing your topic. Rules include proposals and final rules: check the record's stage before treating it as an open chance to comment. A final rule is not a proposal.

النص الإنجليزي: Step 4 — Check the official copy

النص الإنجليزي: For a result with a quoted passage, open المصدر الرسمي beside that passage. Check the title, agency and stage on the city's published copy. If no passage result appears, open a result's title and use its عرض في السجل البلدي link instead. You now have a source you can rely on, rather than just a search match.

النص الإنجليزي: Step 5 — Keep and repeat the search

النص الإنجليزي: Return to the search results and copy the browser address. Paste it into a new tab: housing and the grouped view should return, although the records can change. Repeat with a street or agency you care about. Compare two groups again and check one official copy. The glossary explains unfamiliar record types without being a prerequisite.

النص الإنجليزي: When a source cannot load

النص الإنجليزي: A failed source is unknown, not a group with no records. Reload the search or use the record's official link. An empty group alone does not establish that nothing happened.
