Officials only, in order.

I know some other Bay Area transit operators have a hedging program where they buy sort of some insurance in case prices go up crazy, which is what they’re doing now.Steve Heminger · Director1:25:56

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
