The Town sincerely apologizes for the technical difficulties experienced during last night's Town Meeting.

Despite nearly two hours of troubleshooting by technical staff from CAT-TV and SVSU, CAT-TV was unable to broadcast the meeting live due to an unexpected equipment malfunction that was beyond the Town's control.

Approximately 30 minutes into the meeting, we were also notified that some individuals were unable to access the Zoom meeting using the link posted in the agenda. While several participants joined successfully using the link, we understand that others encountered difficulties. The Town does not manage or control Zoom’s system infrastructure; however, as soon as we became aware of the issue, we immediately shared a direct link from within the active meeting on the Town's Facebook group and emailed it to the individual who contacted the webmaster for assistance.

We regret any inconvenience or frustration this situation may have caused and appreciate the community's understanding. A full recording of the meeting is available below.
