Fixes our Cuyahoga County Council spider (aka. cuya_county_council).
Why are we doing this?
Reported by site partners:
Scraper is missing meetings from the main calendar and is erroneously reporting scraped meetings as cancelled on Documenters.org likely due to an incorrect url connection
The scraper has been rebuilt, which hopefully addresses these issues.
Monitor the stdout and ensure that the crawl proceeds without raising any errors. Pay attention to the final status report from scrapy.
Inspect test_output.csv to ensure the data looks valid. I suggest opening a few of the URLs under the source column of test_output.csv and comparing the data for the row with what you see on the page.
Are there any smells or added technical debt to note?
