I don't quite understand this. The community meeting has been recorded for the past 3 years (9 meetings). I would think that the recording would both meet legal requirements and allow a transcript to be made later. At most, we might need a recording secretary to take notes, but this does not require a stenographer. Matt does an excellent job of it now and getting someone to take notes for pay would still be far less expensive that hiring a stenographer. -- R.
