Please do livestream and archive the OCWD's public meetings. A livestream and archive of meeting videos provides the working public, parents, those with transportation constraints, students, and all who wish to participate in local government with the ability to review meeting discussions. The District should invest in this action to increase transparency and take the opportunity to educate the public about water infrastructure and management.

Corruption happens behind people's back; behind closed doors; out of public's view.

As Mayor of Mission Viejo and Candidate for the Municipal Water District of Orange County, I urge all water agencies to stream and archive all of their meetings.

Since the meetings are difficult for so many of us in the county to get to after work, it would be a great move to record and share them with the people of Orange County. I believe that a lot of people do care about their water and their representatives, I certainly do. Unfortunately, we have no way to hold them accountable or know what was said at the OCWD meetings. Te minutes taken do not do us justice.

Please consider live-streaming meetings of the OCWD, as most other public agencies now do.

Yes, public meetings where water issues are discussed, should be accessible.

Long past time to broadcast these meetings live. Cities do it for council meetings, and the organizations on which their council members serve should do the same. End the secrecy that benefits developers at the expense of residents--now!

If they have nothing to hide, then there should be no issues with live streaming their meetings.

Orange County Business Council urges OCWD to immediately live stream every public meeting. It's long overdue.

Long past time to do this. Is the OCWD board afraid of having a video record of their meetings. The audio alone does not cut it.

I am requesting that the OCWD provide live internet broadcasting and video archiving of all the District's public meetings.

Transparency is the word. Why is OCWD so afraid of it?

The idea of live streaming public meetings is of utmost importance. This is something that I'd like to see for the Ocean View School District board meetings as well. It will allow for critical public participation by multiple stakeholder groups.
