HOW SOURCING WORKS

From Published Fact to Public Source

Every data point follows an auditable provenance chain back to public government documentation.

Step 1 · Fact

Published Civic Fact

A civic record, expenditure observation, or statistic published on BetterSanFernando.

Step 2 · Source

Named Authority

The official government body, statutory disclosure portal, or audit release supporting that information.

Step 3 · Public Link

Verifiable Public Link

A public page, portal filing, or official document file that residents can directly inspect.

Authority is stated per domain and is never assumed from a generic government label.

SOURCE REGISTRY

Published Datasets and Domains

Dataset files serving the same public purpose are grouped into source domains while preserving distinct authority and coverage information.

Projects & Procurement

Infrastructure projects, procurement evidence records, and verified cost-utilization observations.

City Projects

303project records

A bounded infrastructure and public-works project collection with lifecycle, location, procurement, and amount fields.

Coverage

Covers the verified infrastructure and public-works subset, not every City project or all historical activity.

Project Cost And Utilization

298observation records

Source-reported, year-to-date cost-utilization observations (Total Cost Incurred to Date and physical completion) for a bounded subset of published projects.

Coverage

Covers only 298 verified observations connected to 106 of the 303 canonical projects in projects/city-projects.json. Coverage is incomplete and does not represent all city projects. All observations are year-to-date figures from the source's own 'Total Cost Incurred to Date' field, which is not proof of cash payment or disbursement. Observations from different reporting quarters are separate and non-additive -- they must never be summed together, and no citywide total is published here. Currency is not stated in the official source documents (currency_unit is null throughout, not an inferred PHP value). Physical-completion and status fields are documentary observations transcribed from the official source, not independent field verification. Some observations are connected to a canonical project whose lifecycle_status is IMPLEMENTATION_REPORTED -- see projects/city-projects.json for what that status does and does not establish. No chart derived from this dataset may be titled or described as citywide spending, actual spending, or amount paid.

City Finances

53finance reports

Selected official aggregate finance reports and their non-additive, source-reported observations.

Full Disclosure Policy Reports

10report records

Individually verified Full Disclosure Policy report metadata: Annual Procurement Plans, Procurement Monitoring Reports, and Trust Fund and Special Education Fund utilization reports.

Coverage

This is a bounded metadata-only export of 10 Full Disclosure Policy report records (2023-2026) with complete, documented verification already present in this repository as of 2026-09-11. It is not a complete Full Disclosure archive: the canonical inventory separately tracks approximately 200 official source records across 2020-2026, of which only these 13 have individual record-level metadata, and only 10 of those 13 have a verified official URL. No report's financial contents (amounts, line items, disbursements) are extracted, summarized, or published anywhere in this repository.

Official Documents

9official documents

A bounded index of Citizen’s Charters, business forms, and privacy documents from verified official sources.

Coverage

This is a bounded document-level index, not a dump of every city file. Laws and issuances, Full Disclosure, procurement plans and monitoring, project evidence, and service records remain in their canonical datasets and should be linked by the frontend rather than copied here. Publication and effective dates remain null unless stated by the document; WordPress upload paths are not dates. The 2022 renewal form remains linked from the current official forms page and is not represented as newly issued in 2026. The Privacy Manual describes itself as a living document that may be revised; users should confirm the current official version.

ABOUT THIS REGISTRY

Understanding the Source Registry

Core standards governing source identification, authority attribution, and publication integrity.

Published Scope

The registry describes datasets available in the current public frontend export. Every domain is backed by versioned, public JSON data artifacts.

Authority

Each domain identifies the relevant official or community source rather than assuming provenance from a generic government label.

Coverage

Published coverage may be bounded or partial and does not automatically imply completeness. Absence indicates unrecovered or unverified materials.
