Welcome to Bangalo... Pasadena, sorry.

After sleeping on it, I've decided I'm mostly wrong.

But if you can give readers basically at least "minutes" of what happened at a meeting -- with no insight whatsoever -- it might be helpful to some, I suppose.

 

It really wouldn't be helpful to many people. The city council could talk about their budget and say the property tax rate will increase by so many cents, but any editor is going to get the reporter to put it how much of an increase somebody owning a $250,000 home would pay for the year. The minutes or television of the council might talk about approving a sewer project, but a reporter would need to ask when the project might be completed and research why it was necessary, like maybe there was a bad flood last year.
