Las Cruces Council Meeting - April 1, 2024

The city’s minutes for this meeting were compared, sentence by sentence, against the transcript of the recording. Of 61 statements the minutes attribute to a named person, 61 were found in the recording.

Tracks the recording closely. 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.
