STATUS: Asecond office checks the count and records any difference in method. The current arrangement remains in place at the stone music room at North Hall.
RECORD: sound checks from the upper bench and repair notes from the masons. The count is 91 seating rows where a spoken announcement is clear; the prior window recorded 97.
DISPUTE: Singers value the hall’s old return. Public clerks need a clear spoken announcement at every seat.
OUTCOME: The hearing is still open and no permanent rule has changed.
NEXT: The Year third, high summer window 1 file remains open for its scheduled decision. Masons will test a removable panel before proposing a permanent repair.
