From the transcript
And thank you, all of you that are here today, especially because it's nice out. They prefer to listen when they can after the fact or to review minutes or meetings online. Our infrastructure is dated and doesn't offer that accessibility, which if we don't continue to move forward and meet residents where they're at, I think it would raise the question as to whether or not we're really participating in open and accessible government activities. Increases transparency and overall, I think it will reduce the cost and burden on some of our staff. It's so much faster to be able to just click and upload a recording of a meeting.
