David Bloom holds forth in song in Off I Go To The County Board, one of the few songs written about the process of covering public meetings.
Off I Go To The County Board,
inspired by Mary Morgan
Off I Go To The County Board,
To hear the rabble bray,
Of taxes met, infractions scored,
On this harumphing day.
Oh Washtenaw, brave Washtenaw,
Of eighty-three, the best.
The other counties hold in awe,
Your credit-worthiness.

There's more verses (oh, so many more) - in fairness to the author, I commend you to view and listen to them directly.
