    Except as provided in paragraph B. hereof, every meeting of any elected board of the City of Stamford, and of any committee thereof, which is required to be open to the public under the Connecticut Freedom of Information Act, Title 1 Chapter 14 of the Connecticut General Statutes (the "Act"), shall be video and audio recorded and a link to such video shall be posted on the city website as soon as practicable, but not in any event later than one week following such meeting.
