How to show up in Riverside County
Surveillance is approved by people who hold public meetings any resident can attend. This page lists the bodies that do that in Riverside County, what we have confirmed about attending each one, and where each publishes its agendas.
We do not publish meeting dates. A schedule we cannot check often enough would eventually send someone to the wrong place on the wrong night. Each body below links to wherever it publishes its own agendas and schedule, and that is the copy to trust.

Agendas are posted at least 72 hours ahead in English and Spanish, and meeting video is published in both languages. The Clerk of the Board's site returns a Cloudflare challenge to our pipeline, so this row was confirmed by reading its pages and one board agenda in a browser. The county warns that documents attached to an agenda item may not include everything related to it, and points readers to the Clerk's office for the rest. The Board sits at the same time as the governing body of several county districts, so an item can appear under any of those headings.

What this list does not cover yet
These are the bodies we have confirmed, not every body in the county. Riverside County has other commissions and committees, and other school and special districts, that we have not documented yet. Several of the county's own committees publish on the same county portal linked above.
