Board members discuss Zoom participation and posting meetings to YouTube
Summary
Staff and members discussed requirements for Zoom participation and roll-call votes if members join remotely, and noted that recordings are routinely posted to YouTube even if no remote attendees speak during the meeting.
Early in the meeting staff raised procedural questions about Zoom and recording practices, noting that every public meeting is required to be available on Zoom and that recordings are posted to YouTube for public access.
One staff member said, "Every public meeting has to be on Zoom," and another explained that if any board member participates remotely a roll-call vote is required. Board members noted they had not seen remote participants speaking and surmised the meeting feed nonetheless was available online for the public.
The discussion concluded with staff and members agreeing to continue current recording practices and to ensure proper roll-call procedure when remote members participate.
