- Prints
- Monthly. 311 posts complaints a day or two late; a month prints four days after it ends. The newest complete month is on the record after the daily proof at 12:40 UTC.
- As first published
Oct 2026 is not timestamped yet. The daily proof at 12:40 UTC adds it.
The number as first published is final for settlement. A revision by the source is shown beside it and never replaces it.
- Fallback
- A month prints four days after it ends. If 311 posts nothing for the month, it stays open. A month 311 never posts is void.
- Precision
- Whole complaints of the two types, by created date, New York time as the city records it.
- Cost to move
- Cheap in small numbers. A complaint is a phone call or a web form.
- Grade
- display. Complaints, not cars: one car can bring several calls. Shown, not settled on.
