    <description>Council meetings shape your rent, your commute and the future of your town, but who has hours to watch them? Council Watch Port Moody does it for you. Each episode, two AI hosts walk you through what the City of Port Moody council discussed and decided, in plain language and in about 15 minutes (on average - may be shorter or longer, depending on the meeting!). You'll hear about housing, development, budgets and what's coming up next. It's fair, non-partisan, offering context notes, with corrections made openly. Subscribe and know what's happening in Port Moody before it happens to you.</description>
