Public Works and Maintenance
Fleet, GPS and maintenance
Where the city's 340 vehicles are, what they are doing, and which ones are about to strand somebody. Positions are demonstration data; the streets, City Hall, the library, the cemetery and the airport are where they actually are.

Every unit, as text
The map is an enhancement. This table is the record, and it is what a screen reader, a printout and a budget hearing get.

Needs attention this morning
-
PD-131 — the state inspection expired six days ago
A Texas safety inspection lapsed on 31 August. The unit is out on assignment and it should not be: this is the one failure on this screen that is a legal exposure and not a cost. It is also the cheapest thing here to fix.
Pull it off the road Book the inspection today

PW-21 — brake inspection 3,100 miles past due, and it is out working
A 2013 dump truck idling at the Public Works yard right now. Whichever trigger comes first wins — miles, engine hours or the calendar — and this one passed the mileage trigger in July.
Call it in now

PW-52 — no signal for 38 minutes, north of Mile 10
It is not lost. It is past the canal where there are no bars, and the recorder in the cab is logging every second of it. The track uploads when it comes back into coverage; the map sits at the last confirmed fix rather than guessing.
Flag it at the yard
The service queue — whichever trigger comes first wins
Miles, engine hours, or the calendar. Four of these were going to be found the hard way: on the shoulder of Expressway 83 in September, by a crew that then needs a ride back.

Demonstration data
The campuses, the trustees and the seal are real. Every enrollment figure, bus position, vote and dollar amount on this site is invented, and each page that shows one says so.
