Alderman Lopez
| just wanted to point out that this deafness awareness week, so | think we all just got a little bit of a taste of
what people are going through. So in all seriousness it would be nice if we had a deaf translator or
something like that in future meetings where we are doing these visually things, but yeah it was a good
solidarity moment we just had about the frustration people experience trying to speak and be heard and
also trying to understand what people are saying.
