You have the option to document this meeting in person or remotely, though we recommend you go in person as the remote audio/visual quality is often not great for new or one-off hybrid meetings. City Bureau reporter Sarah Conway is planning to be in attendance.
If you choose to attend in person, email Cristin.Evans@illinois.gov. to RSVP. An additional hour will be added to your total assignment hours. You may be asked to provide government-issued photo ID and to go through a metal detector.
If you choose to document remotely, you can access it via WebEx. Never post a videoconference link on social media, as this can invite bots into the meeting. Instead, you can direct people interested in tuning in to message you privately for the link.
