Quotes
Officials only, in order.
I want to do a comparison real quick. So you said 4 contractors citywide for $1.3 million. In Council District 1, Jose Correct me if I’m wrong, it’s like we pay a little bit over a million for about 6 clean teams just to service Council District 1.Eunisses Hernandez · Chair · District 12:05:25

How we count
Each summary sentence is checked against the transcript before it is published; in a blind check, 98 of 100 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
