MAYOR JEV’S RECORD · NOV 4, 2026 · CITYWIDE

Citywide preventive care

“Maintenance isn't glamorous, but a working city is. Lowest district: 73% → 100% for J$6,000.”— Mayor Jev

J$6,000 allocated · 84% distribution confidence · promise kept

  1. 01

    The situation

    6 districts had drifted below 80% services; one citywide round was cheaper than 6 separate repairs.

  2. 02

    Jev’s decision

    J$6,000 allocated to restore essential city services.

  3. 03

    What happened

    Services were at 97% at the follow-up. Promise kept: Lowest district Downtown at 83% services.

Maintenance isn't glamorous, but a working city is. Lowest district: 73% → 100% for J$6,000.— Mayor Jev

Why: 6 districts had drifted below 80% services; one citywide round was cheaper than 6 separate repairs.

How Jev weighed 18 options

  • Preventive round · Citywide · chosen85%
  • Hold the budget8%
  • Hold a festival · Tech District3%
  • Preventive care · Northside1%
  • Hold a festival · Northside1%
Next best: Hold the budget, 77 points behind. Probabilities show Jev’s preference, not certainty about the outcome.

Jev’s promise: Every district will still be above 70% services a day from now. ✅ Kept. Measured: Lowest district Downtown at 83% services.

Versus the city rules: the city rules would have chosen “Hold the budget”.

    "priorities": [
      "If services are below 35 and a repair is affordable, restore essential services before discretionary development.",
      "Then meet observed housing demand, accounting for available and pending homes. Free housing requests are explicit demand: prioritize unmet requests over parks, compare district preferences and flexible requests, and avoid duplicate construction when available or pending capacity covers demand. Requests are not extra residents; do not add them to unhoused counts.",
      "Keep every district above 70. Preventive care is cheaper than a crisis repair: when several districts drift, one citywide preventive round beats a string of single-district repairs.",
      "Invest steadily in residents: with reserves above J$1M and no urgent need, fund at least one resident program (festival, restock, job program, preventive care) per real day. Reserves far above need are unused value, not success.",
      "Before discretionary construction, consider current civic payroll coverage. Coverage is a gross stress estimate, not a treasury depletion forecast; do not assume future rent or sales are guaranteed.",
      "When citizens are looking for work and local civic jobs are full, a job program is a better use of funds than a park.",
      "Prefer a cheap shop restock over a repair when services are adequate but shelves are low.",
      "When a district has housing demand but no free lots, upgrading an existing residence is the way to add homes there.",
      "Open citizen petitions are explicit, signed demand. When a petitioned action is affordable and sensible, prefer it over an unpetitioned alternative, weighing signatures and age.",
      "Reserves exist to serve residents. With strong reserves (J$1M+), healthy services and no unmet housing demand, a festival in a lived-in district is a good use of funds about once a day; never while another festival runs.",
      "Waiting is right when no option clearly helps residents; it is not a goal in itself.",
      "Learn from `trackRecord`: your promises are graded on real outcomes (homes occupied, jobs filled, items sold, shifts worked, services that held a day later). Favour actions whose promises you keep; when a kind of action keeps breaking its promise, try something else or wait.",
