From the transcript
I feel like, uh, I don't know, in an extreme situation, um, you know, the only one in recent memory would have been COVID, when pretty much anything you logged into, at least the city, I don't remember logging in any borough ones, but it was entirely virtual. And, you know, you weren't allowed to be in the same building. But in the event of a natural disaster or a landslide down by the crane, like somebody can't make it in from the Flats, you know, I would like to see, uh, that person be able to attend virtually, specifically because that would be a high priority item to discuss and get after right away.
