Quotes
Officials only, in order.
I love all their new Clipper features and where you can just tap with your credit card. But for especially now addressing accessibility at Balboa BART station, there’s only one elevator.Chyanne Chen · Vice chair · District 111:20:28

How we count
Each summary sentence is checked against the transcript before it is published; in a blind check, 99 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
