This is a project that is being built as part of the CfA fellowship that allows citizens to opt-in to notifications from local governments.

Want to determine the feasibility of standing it up locally and contributing to the code.

Some first things on my mind.

1. How does the government create the notification? Email, does the app scrape a website/RSS feed?

2. How would we advertise the availability

3. Community buy-in, would this be healthy?
