If I were in a different place in my life, I'd totally be applying to be a fellow for Code for America [1] (which is how/why this was built). They do incredibly awesome stuff for small governments around the US.
I'm sure you're familiar, but for anyone else reading: CfA has other programs for folks that can't make a full-time dedication http://brigade.codeforamerica.org/
Nonsense. This is why we pay taxes. #getoffmylawn :)
Seriously! and $100/mo.??!?!

This looks awesome. I think civic hacking is a powerful concept.
