Do you actually think that’s fair? Do you actually think that that’s fair, that the mayor’s office has the final determination on what projects move forward as it relates to TIF projects with CPS?Anthony Beale · Ward 92:18:32

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
