  • SeeGov Government Meeting Compilations: Based in South Durham, SeeGov is a nonprofit platform that makes local government meetings easier to follow by turning long, often overwhelming sessions into concise highlight videos. With the decline of local news coverage, it has become harder for residents to track decisions made by the Durham City Council, County Commission, and other boards. That’s why Southpoint Access - largely a one-person newsroom run by Wes Platt - relies on SeeGov as its “reporter in the room” for many meetings that can’t be covered in person.
  • Southpoint Access Office Hours with Wes Platt: Stay connected to what’s happening in South Durham with Southpoint Access Office Hours, a livestream hosted by neighborhood news guy Wes Platt. Office Hours offers an open conversation about local news, development, schools, traffic, and community events.
