Improvement of: • Live streaming broadcast of the City Commission Meeting • Meeting efficiency • Better access of meeting information for Staff and the Public • Time savings • Streamlined approach to Citizen involvement and Public comment AV Capture was chosen as the Vendor to perform these services and was implemented.
