Code for America
I'm not sure if Scottsdale has seen this, but I thought I'd pass it on:

We recruit fellows who demonstrate a networked, web-centric, and open approach to problem-solving. Attaching the fellows to the city for the year and helping them build relationships with a wide variety of city workers is an effective way to introduce this kind of thinking and help it spread.
- Solve complex issues in your city with custom-built tech.
- Encourage experimentation with a new tool set.
- Collaborate with other innovative cities.

Thanks, Jeffrey - I've been tracking that for several years. The apps & other work coming out of CFA are impressive to say the least.
Is there a particular problem you think we could help solve through CFA?
