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 2 voices separated from the audio. No word has been replaced by anything else. 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 98.6% of 588 content words. Dotted words (9 places) are ordinary wording differences: hover or tap to see the other reading. 8 passages (15% 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.

only. And that will allow us to maintain separation of our employees as well as the public in certain circumstances where we are adhering to the CDC guidelines. We're implementing a number of alternate means for our residents as well as customers to complete their services that they would on a daily basis with the city of Cocoa. That includes a number of elements from the Cocoa utilities system, water system, as well as building and permitting, police services, fire services, as well as other services that residents are seeking at city hall.
