Click here for link to live audio from the City Commission workshop (2/23)

This is another night where the City Commission and the CRA meet on the same night, at the same time, in the same building.  Right now, the streaming audio is from the City Commission meeting, but there is not the usual CRA meeting audio.  It also does not allow City Commissioners to take in the CRA meeting live.  Communication between the two bodies has been faulted as a reason for more Commission control of the CRA.  This scheduling does nothing to help the situation.  People actually attending either meeting cannot fully listen or participate in the other.

Can we find different nights for the Commission work session meetings?  Or can we have the CRA meet at Compass and have a separate URL for that feed?

The Commission is talking about our water supply right now - it sounds like SFWMD is asking questions about our water use.
Commissioner Jennings is attending the meeting via the phone and is complaining that she can barely hear what is going on.  Wasn't this supposed to stop?  This is a non-voting meeting - does that make a difference?
