Council approves plan to add audio-capable cameras and review streaming policy
Summary
Green Isle council directed staff to proceed with installing audio-capable cameras in City Hall for improved livestreaming and to return with an updated streaming policy and city attorney review.
Council members discussed installing audio-capable cameras and improving meeting audio and livestream availability at City Hall. Officials said the current microphone and camera setup (installed around 2019–2020) is inadequate for reliable streaming and that the new cameras would improve audio for public comments and meetings.
Council asked staff to review and update the city's streaming policy, bring the policy back for council consideration, and engage the city attorney to ensure compliance. Staff noted cameras and speaker upgrades could be coordinated with the City Hall door replacement to minimize disruption.
No formal ordinance or expenditure detail was recorded on the audio transcript; staff said they will bring options to a future meeting for council approval and noted that more meetings would be recorded or streamed when feasible.
