Clerk Anne Fuchs responded that we will have this publicly available on the City's website at the Board of Public Works, Board of Public Works Documents location by this afternoon at the latest, but sooner if possible. Mr. Molnar continued the business of the Board by inquiring about future meetings and whether they would return to in -person. Clerk Anne Fuchs clarified that the Legal Department has been staying in good touch with representatives from the Governor's Office downstate and that while we have been advised that we will remain in virtual meetings this month, we may receive notice of a return to in -person meetings in June or July of this year. She will continue to take the temperature on the issue. Ms. Maradik noted that Clerk Anne Fuchs has been working with City personnel and IT personnel to find the right technological solution for the Board's needs, and at this time the best option appears to be the Common Council Chambers. The current plan is to resume in -person meetings at that location when we are informed of our duty to do so.
