Mayor Tony Picklesimer
On May 29, Chelsea mayor Tony Picklesimer shared some “exciting news” on the City of Chelsea's Facebook page.
Picklesimer said that as an effort to become more transparent in government of the city, he promised to start live steaming city council meetings when he took office. That happened, and the meetings have been streamed live ever since.
They were initially filmed with an iPhone camera, but recently got an upgrade.
“With approval of the city council, the upgraded livestream will provide us with best online live streaming experience possible,” Picklesimer said. “It will have high quality video and audio."
For those who would like to attend the meeting in person, Picklesimer said they are welcome and the chambers are set up to do safely with social distancing.
For those who watch the council meeting live on Facebook Live on Tuesday, June 2 at 6 pm. can see the new and improved live streaming experience.
