Bring us a case

Show us a County process that did not work the way the rules say.

Permitting, zoning, fees, code enforcement, procurement, public records. If you hit a wall and the reason was unclear, inconsistent or undocumented, tell us what happened. We read the record and, where it holds up, we publish what it shows.

What happened

Everything below stays with the Coalition. Nothing is published, and nothing is sent to the County, without your say-so.

You will get a reference number on this page and a reply from hello@the1565.com. We keep your name and contact details private unless you later agree otherwise. Up to five submissions an hour per connection.

What makes a good case

  • The rule says one thing and the outcome was another.
  • Two applicants were treated differently for the same thing.
  • A fee, timeline or requirement was never explained in writing.
  • A decision was made without the public notice the process requires.

What we do with it

We pull the application file, the code section, the agenda packet or the invoice, and compare them to what you describe. If the record supports it, we write it up with every source linked, the way we did for the food truck park. If it does not, we tell you what we found.

What we are not

Not lawyers, and this is not legal advice. We do not represent you before the County, and we do not take positions on how a board should vote. We examine process. If you need an outcome by a deadline, talk to a land-use attorney as well.
