Detroit City Council Introducing Skype at Meetings
Fri, 03/18/2011 - 10:26 by Bill Gallagher View ProfileThe City of Detroit has announced plans to allow citizens to speak at city council meetings via Skype.
According to the Detroit Free Press, "in a city of 750,000 people, fewer than a dozen residents typically speak out during the comment period." This is such a tiny fraction, and the new Skype solution could hopefully increase the number of citizens speaking at City Council meetings.
