Youre taking a look at a city council meeting which took place before the pandemic.

Today's meeting will look much different city manager mark orme tells me people will not be allowed to sit inside the chambers for the meeting.

Instead if you attend you will have to be outside... that is so everyone can try to be six feet apart.

If we can go to the grocery story and go grocery shopping and we can participate in other activities, we can definitely take part in a meeting that will help our city."
