I'm not going to say I'm 100% up on all this but you are right some prep would have helped. Did someone actually say that?? Might as well put public perception in the garbage disposal. I clicked on the link but it says intermission. The background music is the Star Trek theme I think. Weird.

Yes, commissioner Auerbach said it. Believe one of the speakers/protesters said something about horses belonging in the wild, not at a track, and that was the response from the board as the speaker walked away. There will be a full transcript posted online within a couple weeks, should be a fun read.
Public comments just ended (after nearly 2 hours), so the meeting is in a 10-20 minute intermission before they actually get to the rest of the agenda.
