Where the meeting transcript contained garbled numeric values (several procurement amounts were displayed inconsistently in the transcript), staff and procurement were asked to confirm exact contract amounts and will return with documentation if needed.
Next steps: procurement and finance staff to process approved contracts and provide clarifying documentation on any garbled amounts recorded in the transcript.
