Redline · the record, checked

Does the official record match what happened?

The city publishes minutes of every meeting. That document — not the video — is what courts, reporters and future councils treat as what happened. This page holds those minutes against our archive of the recording and shows every place the two disagree, with the passage from each and a link to the moment on tape.

Read these as differences between two documents, not as accusations. Minutes are allowed to summarise, and our transcript is machine-generated, so it garbles names and drops words. Every finding is shown next to its evidence precisely so you can judge it yourself — and correct us where we’re wrong.
