Would the toll free numbers be made public? Today that is not done, Glen sends the relevant dial ins to the permitted participants (e.g. Councilors and staff). Often people need to be dialed out to, each of these is done individually, so there is considerable staff overhead to coordinate access for each ad hoc participant, in addition to additional toll charges. So if this process continues, listeners would need to RSVP in advance so that the information can be provided. It can be very labor intensive today, these costs would increase if we were to have many more “listeners”. Making the call-in numbers public (in order to avoid this overhead) may create other issues to consider.</span></div></div></div></span></blockquote></div><div><br></div><div><div>What about webcasting?
