AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION Tim Smith, 6053 Sherwood Drive said he spoke with Don Pangrac and he was frustrated that the Council meetings are not on the public access channel for residents to view. Smith said he has suggested this several times over the years, and quite a few residents asked about Council meetings last year when he was out campaigning. For a lot of residents, the dates and time of Council meetings conflict with their schedules. Smith asked that Council consider broadcasting the Council meetings on the local access channel.
