Palm Coast will be making "significant technology upgrades" to its audio/visual system to improve public accessibility, both in-person and online.
The improvements will be centered on the Jon Netts Community Wing at City Hall, where the Palm Coast City Council and other public meetings are held. The improvements will include "strengthen the city’s capabilities in video conferencing, live streaming, and assistive listening," a city press release said. The improvements should be completed by late summer.
The current system is over a decade old, the press release said, and the upgrades will include new assistive listening technology, HD cameras, microphones, updates to the control programming and upgrades to the audio and video feeds in the overflow room.
The improvements are to ensure the City Council meetings and workshops remain transparent and accessible, both in-person and online, the press release said. The city is also "actively evaluating additional areas in need of technology improvements" across city facilities, including the Wi-Fi at the Palm Coast Community Center.
