Live Stream and Captioning Technical Test – October 23, 2026

On October 23, 2026, at 18:00 UTC, city staff conducted a technical test of the live stream and closed captioning system prior to the official city meeting. No agenda or minutes were available, and the transcript contains only the testing dialogue. No official business, public comment, or decisions occurred.

Technical Testing Details

  • Staff tested the live stream on the city website and in the AV room, with participants including Tony and D (remote/AV support).
  • Captioning initially did not appear on the website stream or on the AV room screen, and no captions button was visible.
  • After further checks, a captioning button became available and captions began displaying correctly on both the website stream and the AV room screens.
  • Staff confirmed "everything appears to be displaying properly" and concluded the test.
