Officials only, in order.
Like, we’re recommending let’s extend the coverage of the safety ambassadors. There may not be a number to that now, but the idea is that we would engage with staff and iterate so that at the start of the budget cycle we’d have very specific recommendations.Mike Petouhoff · Chair1:57:12

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
