Las Cruces Council Meeting - April 15, 2024

The city’s minutes for this meeting were compared, sentence by sentence, against the transcript of the recording. Of 56 statements the minutes attribute to a named person, 56 were found in the recording.

Summarised — gaps worth reading. The comparison is mechanical and has no opinion about why two documents differ. A gap can be honest summarising; a mismatch can be the caption software mishearing. Both texts are shown so you can decide, and the correction form at the bottom is there for when the machine is wrong.

Mattiace: figure differs from the recording: minutes say 600000, recording says 600

Says something different

Both records carry the same sentence, but they disagree on a number or on whether it was negative. Both records carry the same sentence, but not the same number. The minutes read “…we aren't hearing from they purchased that 600,000 800,000 home thinking that it…” and state 600000; the recording states 600.

What the minutes say

Councilor Mattiace said it is important for me to recognize that a lot of the stakeholders, homeowners, and people that have moved into that subdivision halfway depended on that first agreement or some of those homebuyers that maybe we aren’t hearing from they purchased that $600,000/$800,000 home thinking that it was going to be the first agreement, you know one story. It still may be 50 people, 60 people but the stakeholders agreed to that it wouldn’t be capped, correct?

What the recording says

less than 120 okay thank you David [Music] um you know it's important for me to recognize that a lot of the stakeholders homeowners and even people that moved into that subdivision uh have really depended on that first agreement or is some of those home buyers maybe we're not hearing from them uh they purchased that $600 $800,000 home uh thinking that it was going to be the first agreement you know one story it still may be uh 50 people 60 people but the stakeholders agreed to that that it it wouldn't be capped correct Mr chairman I using uh stories as a standard is rather difficult
