Neighborhood Experiment Ledger

Publish a public ledger of small neighborhood experiments so local teams can reuse what worked and avoid repeating dead ends. It connects to block-level-heat-shelter-map, porch-to-park-event-template, civic-budget-copilot.

Working moves

• Each experiment entry should capture the hypothesis, the smallest action taken, and what changed afterward.
• Use linked follow-up notes to show whether an experiment grew, stalled, or turned into a budget request.
• Make the ledger searchable by location, topic, and required volunteer effort.

Why it matters

Public memory is a real civic asset. A visible ledger lets local experiments compound into shared know-how.
