The official links, kept checked
This chapter is not only a record of what Olive Branch government does. It is also a way to reach the offices, portals and phone numbers you actually need — the city’s own pages, the county’s, and the Mississippi bodies that hear a complaint when a city will not answer.
Every one of these links is on the City Desk, grouped by city government, records and transparency, DeSoto County and Mississippi offices, and how to be in the room at a meeting. Each is re-fetched every week, and the date it was last checked is published on the page.
What you will find there
- City government — the council, the clerk, the departments, and the city’s own site.
- Records & transparency — where to file a request, where budgets and finances are published.
- DeSoto County and Mississippi — county offices, and the state bodies that oversee open records and public money.
- Meetings — when they happen, where the agenda is posted, and how to speak.
Why we link out rather than copy
The city’s own page is the authority. Our job is to make sure you can find it, and to notice when it moves or goes dark — not to stand between you and it. So every link here points at the source, and the weekly check tells you if one has stopped working.
Where a page has been taken down and it mattered, we keep a dated copy and say plainly that it is a copy, with a link to the live original.
Tell us and we will fix it and say that we did: olivebranch@moveweight.net. You do not have to say who you are.
