STAUNTON, Va. (WVIR) - A group in Staunton is protesting City Council’s recent decision to end virtual meetings. It means everyone has to come to City Hall to participate in meetings, ending the public’s ability to phone in.
Staunton Council first allowed virtual participation in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In a 4-3 vote, they ended it at their most recent meeting.
