Logan Community Alliance Inc.

We are a small, independent group of Logan residents committed to understanding how Logan City Council actually works and holding it accountable to the community. We are not part of Council. We are not a political party.

RESOURCES AND FUNDING

The organisation operates lean. We have no paid staff. The core team members are volunteers who commit 12-15 hours per week combined. Supporting members commit 1-2 hours per week each. We engage specialist contractors (hydrologists, data analysts, designers) on a project basis when we need expertise we do not have internally. We pay for public liability insurance and basic operational costs (website, email, etc.). If needed, we will seek support through resident donations and subscriptions to fund our work. We may also pursue grants or seek support from community organisations aligned with our mission. All funding is transparent and disclosed to members.

ACCOUNTABILITY

The core team is accountable to supporting members through monthly meetings. Supporting members review draft reports for accuracy and fairness. They provide strategic feedback. If supporting members believe the core team is off-track, they raise it. If serious concerns exist, any member can call
a meeting to discuss. All members are accountable to residents. We publish what we do. Residents can review our reports
and make up their own minds about whether our analysis is sound and fair.

DECISION-MAKING

The core team makes day-to-day operational decisions: which Council decisions to analyse in depth, how to frame analysis, when to publish, how to pitch to media. The team works collaboratively and discusses emerging issues with supporting members through weekly team discussions and monthly full-member meetings.
Major strategic decisions (launching a new investigation, deciding to support a community campaign, significant spending, changes to focus) are discussed with all seven members at monthly meetings.
Broad input shapes the decision. The core team implements with feedback from supporting members.
