Township Committee - Special Meeting - June 29th - Fire Department consolidation
Thanks,Jamie. It's so important for the public to keep up-to-date on all local issues.
Does anyone know if the TC plans on returning to in-person meetings?
Will this town ever have in person meetings again in our lifetimes?

The main issue at the moment is that they don't have a reliable set up to do in person AND zoom. Since the meeting is advertised as streaming/zoom - that element has to happen. If they did this and the Zoom portion stopped working - the whole meeting would need to end. I heard something like this happened in South Orange recently.
Why don’t they go back to broadcasting on public access cable or do a live stream?
I think at this time it's only one or the other - they can't do both reliably. I'm guessing that they think some people may want to still address the committee remotely, so they'll probably keep streaming for the moment.
At least the sound is superior on the zoom presentation than under any previous sound system in the town hall.

Ugh - sorry a bit behind on these! I didn't realize there was a "live" sub-section now in youtube! Usually the live ones would end up in the main videos tab after they were over.
