Audio & Images - 1327 Queen St E Community Consultation meeting at 56 Woodfield Rd - June 24, 2014

Below is (very poor quality) audio that I captured at the meeting starting with the first question from the public (Carol Deacon) - just after the Architect finished his presentation.

The audio is in 3 minute bites (because that's what my phone's Audio Record widget does).

Quality gets much better when I move to the front row aisle seat, half way threw the 20:11 track.  Times are accurate.

(Turn up the volume to Full on your computer speakers.)

To be fair, the audio doesn't pick up the staff and developer retorts to points the public are making - but after 20:11 - it does get all the neighbourhood folk's talking points (which is what this was all about - as far as I understand).

I go take pictures at the peak of the meeting (from 19:50 to 19:58) with the room full and lots of raised hands - just as everyone is beginning to become aware that there won't enough time to hear what everyone from the neighbourhood has to say in the time allotted.

About a 1/3 of the room leaves by 8:15 - likely because they can't hear or see the slide show (no amplifier and the screen is big enough for a living room holiday snaps presentation - not architectural drawings).

My audio resumes just after Councillor Mary-Margaret McMahon organizes the speaker's queue - and continues all the way to when it's Councillor Paula Fletcher's turn - at which point I try to take video of her statement - and my battery dies.
