[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Special Meeting Computer and Technology Group

[Ken Pogran]

My understanding is that the Town is looking into technology solutions 
to support hybrid (in-room + remote) public meetings.  The expectation 
is that, long term, there will be legislation amending the Public 
Meeting Law to permanently provide for in-person, hybrid, and fully 
remote public meetings.   Folks got a taste over the past year, and 
they're now demanding it.

The idea is to implement a solution that supports an in-person meeting 
in a conference room, provides good "coverage" of that meeting to remote 
attendees, and allows remote attendees to participate in the same level 
as though they were present in the room.  Several technology solutions 
are being investigated; multiple products that have come out to do this 
sort of thing. (Whether these technology solutions are compatible with 
the Zoom platform, or would be dependent on some other remote meting 
platform, is a good question)

I don't see why the principal meeting rooms at the Community Center 
wouldn't be (or, at least, shouldn't be) included in an eventual Town 
"buy" of such technology.
