Description

Today we are talking about the first City Council meeting of 2021. We touch on township island annexations (here's the city's description we mentioned and the policy memo we referenced); the police budget (yes, again), including whether facial recognition technology is coming to Ann Arbor; the Moving Together initiative (the overall plan and its latest report), Vision Zero and A2Zero, and how transportation and master planning work together; and a little big dreaming about future Council work. A quick process note: we recorded this the Thursday before the Council meeting, which means there's always a chance something new will make it to the agenda between the time of recording and the actual meeting.
