Subscribe by Community District

• As a member of the general public
• I want to sign up for updates about projects by community district
• So that I can stay informed about new projects in my areas of interest

How do we make signing up for notifications a clear and easy process?

Our current plan is first to have users sign up for notifications by accessing a page connect to ZAP. Potentially, users could also access a sign up portion on the NYC DCP website, which would link to the sign up portion on ZAP.

As a member of the public, what are my option if I would like to subscribe by CD?

This user group should have the option to subscribe up to 59 Community Districts.
(this brings to question if a user subs up to 59 option would they be defaulted to city wide?)

As a general public member, where do I find more information about CDs?

A possible solution is to link to ZOLA for users to find more information about what CDs they live in.

(this brings to question if a user subs up to 59 option would they be defaulted to city wide?)

Based on my understanding, we're treating "citywide" as mutually exclusive from projects associated with one more CDs. Projects such as this citywide one are associated with no CDs, not all CDs. With that in mind, I think it would be confusing to sign up users for citywide when they check all 59 CDs.
