Description
The image shows a public meeting or event taking place in a room with wood-paneled walls and a drop ceiling. A person stands at a wooden podium with a microphone, flanked by three others behind them. One banner in the background reads "Town of Niagara Fire D[epartment]" with additional text suggesting a local context in Niagara, New York. In the foreground, several individuals are seated at a table with cups and papers, some of them clapping while listening to the speaker. The setting suggests a community gathering or formal discussion, possibly related to local activism or municipal issues.
