CABLE TV <br />The Board reviewed the following memo dated June 21, 1994. <br />DATE: JUNE 21, 1994 <br />TO: HONORABLE BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS <br />THRU: JAMES E. CHANDLER <br />COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR <br />FROM: H.T. "SONNY" DEAN, DIRECTOR, <br />DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL SERVICES <br />SUBJECT: COUNTY COMMISSION MEETINGS AGENDA <br />Currently, the agenda for weekly meetings is being advertised in the <br />Press Journal at a average price of $165.00 and in the SVn newspaper <br />ata price of $140.00. We are also advertising these agendas on both <br />cable networks at a total price of $25.00 per week. This equates to <br />a total weekly cost -of $338.00 for both media's. <br />Staff is requesting direction from the Board as to whether there is a <br />need to continue advertising with both the newspapers and cable TV <br />companies. <br />Administrator Chandler advised that he had recently authorized <br />the agenda to be shown on cable TV. TCI charged $25/week and <br />Falcon was at no charge. <br />Deputy County Attorney Collins said he thought publication of <br />the agenda was not technically required, but there could be <br />problems if important action were taken without adequate notice. <br />Administrator Chandler said there was no legal requirement to <br />publish the agenda. He also informed the Board that he has <br />requested that the Agenda be published on the County page each <br />time, and the representative of the Press Journal assured him that <br />they attempt to do so when possible. <br />Bill Hoolage, 11 Vista Gardens Trail, felt that viewers have <br />an advantage now that Cable Channel 13 runs a notice on when a <br />meeting will be broadcast. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Macht, SECONDED by <br />Commissioner Eggert, the Board unanimously <br />approved continuation of the publication of <br />the agenda as done currently and set out in <br />the memo. <br />SUN 28 1994 21 <br />
