Quotes
Officials only, in order.
What I’m asking specifically is, has the commission ever authorized the removal of a stained glass, non-religiously themed stained glass window from a building For sale, for permanent sale and removal.Michael Goldblum1:41:39rec. 1
So if you do remove that earth, you’re exposing more of the facade of the house under the window. Is there a proposed elevation of that?Stephen Chu3:06:30rec. 1

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
