Staff stops live manager to add commissioners after some could not join virtual meeting

A staff member managing the session began by checking connections and told attendees they would start recording the meeting. The moderator said, "I'm gonna start recording now," and walked participants through the online interface that shows meetings by month and displays a blue "join meeting" button for active sessions. The moderator asked commissioners who were present to refresh the meeting page and use that button to join.

Another staff member noted aloud that "we do have several commissioners here" but that some had not been added to the online meeting. To allow staff to add attendees and make changes, the moderator directed staff to end the live manager, saying they needed to "hit end and hit end 1 more time" because the platform cannot be modified after a meeting has started. The exchange focused on procedural steps to ensure elected officials could sign in and be listed as meeting participants before formal proceedings continued.
