Transcript Partial transcript

Machine transcription of this recording. The words are the recognizer's, except where a passage is marked as corrected or machine re-recognized; most have not been checked against the audio, so words, numbers and names can be misheard. It describes what was said. It cannot establish who voted how, an amount or an outcome. A time links to its passage, and “Copy link” copies that link. “▶ Play” opens the recording at that moment, on YouTube; on this page it moves the player above the transcript.

How this transcript was made. New machine transcription of the whole recording, with 10 voices separated from the audio. 3 short machine repair(s) (3 word(s)) are labelled in place, with the original words beside them: an ordinary word was replaced only where two further machine readings agreed on a different one. Checks run on this transcript: the recognizer's own warning signs and whether a voice was detected where the words are. Not completed: language review. A second, independent machine reading was compared with it word by word: the same words for 97.2% of 963 content words. Dotted words (5 places) are ordinary wording differences: hover or tap to see the other reading. 22 passages (23% of the words) are marked suspect: their words are not shown ("unclear audio") and support no statement: numbers, amounts, negation or names differ; the language review questioned them; or no voice was detected there. Agreement between two machine readings is not verification.
Inspection is incomplete: language review.

Speakers were separated by voice. A plain name rests on evidence tied to that voice; “provisional” is a name from an earlier text-only pass and is not verified; “Speaker N” is an unidentified voice.

We're very blessed and we were always told to be of service to others. ‸ I went through Catholic education and that was ingrained in me from kindergarten on out. So we feel an obligation and actually it's joyful to be able to do that for other people.

Primarily they are sometimes motivated because they get extra credit in classes or they get to document their service hours on their transcript which is part of the reason we have our program, Service Learning at the College. But along the way

the Citizens Advisory Board and after my first term on that I decided I wanted to do something a little bit more so I became a VCOP. And I served as a VCOP for four and a half years and I liked that so much and I felt like I was doing something that I would normally put in about a hundred hours a month

for the city and the volunteers play a huge role in our office. We have approximately eleven boards, I'd say give or take. Most of the ‸ board members have been long serving board members. What's neat is each of them come whether it be from a finance background, business background, you know, real estate, they all bring a unique perspective to the city and

So many things that they specialize in with our boards and committees. Then we have our VCOPs and our, you know, people who volunteer to help out with our schools and beautification and people who get out and plant trees and pull weeds. There's just an unlimited number of people who come out to help do the things that the city needs done every day.

We probably couldn't do the mission without volunteers. All these people who sit on boards and do other things and VCOP and whatever there is, especially on the boards, because we really rely on their expertise and their opinions when they come back to us.
