Still building — what’s new, and what you helped fix

County Commons is a small, independent project built in public, one record at a time. Here’s what changed lately across every county site, and the fixes that came from readers. Last update: October 23, 2026.

Help keep Brevard County’s pages honest

You know this county better than any record does. If a number, name or date is wrong, something’s missing, or you have a document we should read, tell us. A person reads every note, and every fix is listed below.

Notes received so far across all county sites: 0. Counts only — notes themselves stay private. A note is a lead, not an edit: we check it against the record before changing anything.
