Carr asks how many influencers worked with the mayor's office; panel defers
Carr asks how many social media influencers have worked with the mayor's office or city agencies this calendar year; both Smith-Cruz and Van Auken say they do not have the answer and refer him to the communications department, with Brewer noting the communications office declined to participate.
Thank you again, Chair Brewer, Commissioners.
Good to see you both.
Thank you for being here today.
My first question is, how many social media influencers have worked with the mayor's office or the various city agencies since the beginning of the calendar year?
Doris would not have the answer to that question.
We do not have the answer to that question either.
I would refer you to the communications department.
Right.
So we're having a hearing about this very topic, and two agency heads were sent here who don't have the answer to that question.
Just so you know, they were invited, and they declined to participate.
Just so you know, Council Member.
Thank you.
Thank you, Chair.
I wonder why they declined.
