We apologize for audio issues. We are trying to balance the needs of the online users with the people in the crowd.
Would someone fix the sound? Can’t understand what Jason is saying.
Is it just me or is it hard to hear when they talk?
The council members are each taking a turn to speak. The others have not spoken.
Did the guest speakers talk already? I came in late to the live 😅
Is this the same as the last live?
This is live now 3/11.
The should have oversight over the budget in both cases. Right now the council members have difficulty getting into for proper oversight
The budget process would be the same
We have no idea
I will find out
Clearly you wasn’t listening but great & remember the invitation was for everyone . To say such a thing 😂
