Given the size of the Committee, there will be little or no room for the public in the conference room. Makes sense to hold it in Council chambers where it can easily be televised.
Why isn’t this meeting held in Council chambers???
A few years ago, Council was asked the same question re meetings in Chambers. Some members suggested it was easier to have private deliberations if not televised. At that time, there were only 2 seats available for the public in the meeting room. Interesting.
