Brewer dismisses CFB panel and opens public testimony
Brewer thanks Melillo, dismisses the CFB panel, and opens public testimony, reminding the public that decorum must be preserved, no video recording is allowed, speakers get three minutes, and written testimony can be submitted to the sergeant at arms or by email within 72 hours.
Thank you very much for you, and you are dismissed.
And we look forward to working with CFB, always.
Excellent.
Dr.
Anya Schiffman, who is the author of the Columbia Journalism Review, the article that is of much discussion and respected.
So this is part of the public testimony.
That's what we're opening now.
And I remind members of the public, this is a government proceeding.
Decorum shall be reserved.
You will remain silent at all times.
The witness table is for people who wish to testify.
No video recording or photography is allowed.
Members of the public may not present audio or video recordings as testimony, but may submit transcripts of such recordings to the sergeant if you want to.
If you want to speak, make sure you fill out an appearance card with the sergeant and be recognized, and you'll have three minutes to talk on today's hearing topic, but I'm sure the doctor can have some more time.
All right, thank you very much.
And if you have a written statement or additional, you can submit it to the Sergeant at Arms.
You also can send written testimony to testimony at council.nyc.gov within 72 hours of the close, not audio and video.
And anybody who's got a, in person, you'll come up to the table when you're called, and we will call those from Zoom if they are there.
And please go ahead.
And thank you for being here, and congratulations on your article.
