52 posts from moonarea.net. These carry no publication date — not in the listing, not on the post page, not in a sitemap — so they cannot be placed in time and are not mixed into the timeline above. Listed as the district lists them.
65 segments in these minutes contain a home address. Moon Area records personnel motions in full — a name, a street address, a town and ZIP, and an hourly rate. That is a lawful public record, and it is also a private citizen’s address sitting in a document most people will never open.
So nothing on this page is written from those segments. A classifier sorts every item before any summary is made, and quarantined text is never passed to the summariser at all — it cannot repeat what it was never shown. Along with 318 further items naming individual employees, that is 383 of 651 segments counted rather than quoted.
We do not edit the source. Every meeting above links to the district’s own minutes, whole and unaltered. Those are public records and they are the district’s to publish; rewriting someone else’s public record would be its own dishonesty. What we control is what we republish and make searchable, and we have chosen not to make a cafeteria worker’s address easier to find than it already is.
The summaries are machine-written and checked. Each is generated from a single item of the minutes, with a rule that any dollar figure must appear verbatim in the source or be dropped. They are a finding aid, not a substitute for the record. Where something matters, read the minutes — that is what the links are for.
