A week after receiving praise from open-government advocates for posting employees' compensations online, Costa Mesa is again the beneficiary of accolades for its efforts.
The Sunshine Review, a nonprofit advocate for state and local government transparency, gave the city an A-plus for its online transparency.
The grade is a complete 180-degree turn for Costa Mesa — a city the Review previously gave an F to because of the poor quality, accessibility and clarity of its information available online.
