ISSUE STATEMENT: Should the Council agree to be awarded the PEG grant and be in partnership with LCOG to allow them to install cablecast equipment in City facilities? ATTACHMEN TS: 1. LCOG PEG Grant Intergovernmental Agreement 2. Public Access, Education, or Government grant Cover Letter DISCUSSION/ FINANCIAL IMPACT: The Metropolitan Policy Committee (MPC) has awarded the City of Springfield a Public Access, Education, or Government (PEG) Grant in the amount $62,900. The grant, in conjunction with a $75,000 grant from Comcast, will allow the City to install equipment enabling broadcast of public meetings on the Public Channel operated by MetroTV and provided by Comcast to all Springfield cable subscribers. City and MetroTV staff reviewed potential facilities at three sites and ultimately decided to apply for funding for just two, the Springfield City Hall Library Meeting Room, and the Springfield Justice Center Emergency Operations Center (EOC). The third site, the Wildish Theatre, would not have been eligible for the PEG funding. Installation of the equipment reduce City costs for broadcasting meetings from Springfield and will permit live broadcasting of the MPC (and other) meetings. The Intergovernmental Agreement with LCOG will allow the MetroTV staff to supervise the installation of the cablecasting equipment on the MetroTV site and work with City staff on the installation of the cablecasting equipment and fiber link required at the City to make the system ready for MetroTV cablecasting. This Intergovernmental Agreement also authorizes the use of the Public Access, Education, or Government Grant funds on this project. Staff recommends that the Council approve the award and Intergovernmental Agreement for this grant funding. Staff will continue to pursue the installation of similar equipment at the Wildish Theatre, using money from the Comcast grant and other sources, which remain to be identified.

We wish to apply for a portion of the Fiscal Year 2012 PEG funding for our capital broadcasting needs. The City of Springfield and MetroTV staff visited and review potential facilities at the City of Springfield, to assess priorities for the purchase and installation of recording and broadcasting equipment. We assessed three sites and ultimately decided to apply for funding for just two, the Springfield City Hall Library Meeting Room, and the Springfield Justice Center Emergency Operations Center (EOC). I am attaching pricing estimates for those two facilities provided to us by MetroTV staff. Currently the MPC meets six times per year in the Library Conference room in Springfield City Hall. In addition, several meetings of the Joint Elected Officials are held each year in Springfield. At each meeting Metro TV is required to allocate at least two staff members to remotely record the proceedings for delayed broadcast. Installation of the equipment outlined in the attached grant application, would help reduce those broadcasting costs and accomplish at least four specific goals. 1. It would be to eliminate the need for two Metro TV personnel to broadcast from Springfield. A single person would be able to operate the equipment. 2. It will provide equipment that could easily be used to record and/or broadcast a wider variety of meetings of interest to PEG viewers. 3. The installation would allow for live cable casting of the MPC (and other) meetings. 4. The Justice Center EOC included in the application is an excellent room that would provide a space large enough for JEO/MPC meetings to be cablecast and the equipment could also be utilized for internal and regional training purposes by Springfield staff. The City of Springfield sees these goals as great benefits to our citizens and PEG viewers alike; therefore we are submitting the attached “Application Request for PEG Equipment Funds”. We plan to have staff attend the March 8th MPC meeting in order to answer any questions that may arise. In the meantime, should you have any questions please let me know. Sincerely, Len Goodwin Assistant Public Works Director
