Maybe you and Harry could bring that issue up? I, for one, am waiting for the minutes for [Art Johnston&#8217;s] censure. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>I should note that Mr. Ramos listens to audio recordings. As John says this is a pretty simple process. At our closed executive minutes of the school board we are required by law to record our &#8220;temporarily&#8221; secret discussions on sensitive topics. We don&#8217;t do audio recordings of our meetings. I recommended Video recordings which do require more work with someone fussing with a camera and rotating it to focus on changing speakers. I will recommend audio recordings and see if that meets with more support.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>. . . this recent post on transparency.
