Quotes
Officials only, in order.
If you look and they were all justified pointing incidents, then it’s not we need the numbers down, it’s here’s why the numbers are up. And I just think that’s an important distinction in setting the course for what the work is.Sandra Wortham · Attorney · South Side1:48:45

How we count
Each summary sentence is checked against the transcript before it is published; in a blind check, 144 of 150 sentences were right. A voice gets an official’s name only when two AI readers and a code check agree, so the minutes undercount and are not attendance. Officials only: members of the public are counted, never named, shown or quoted, and full transcripts aren’t published because they can carry their names. More on how we know
