Trust & Proof — The Lens

Count trust words (review, testimonial, rating, verified) against real outbound proof links (Google, Trustpilot, Clutch, G2, Yelp). Lots of trust language with zero verification links is trust theatre. Unlinked logo galleries count against it.

Trust theatre is minimal as the site relies on the authority of its .gov domain. While the system reports a review_count of 5 to 48, these appear to be metadata markers for news entries rather than fabricated testimonials. The proof_links_count is low, but the substance is found in the downloadable ordinances and published meeting agendas mentioned in the text.

Proof density is high. Every news item on the CivicAlerts.aspx page is a specific, dated report with verifiable details, such as the SPD Domestic Violence Detectives Make Arrest entry. This ratio of verifiable evidence to assertions is far superior to most private sector and even some large-scale public sector websites.

Trust & Proof is read by weighing trust language against real verification. Below is the page-by-page tally of review mentions and external proof links, then the schema markup that may (or may not) declare verifiable ratings and identity proof.
