PRESENTATION — CTV NORTH SUBURBS JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT AMENDMENT Dana Healy, CTV Executive Director, explained that in July 2020, the North Suburban Communications Commission voted to update the Joint Powers Agreement with some housekeeping items along with removing in Section V.1, "geographically contiguous to any of these named municipalizes." She explained that this will allow more cities to work with CTV. Ms. Healy reviewed the CTV 2021 service agreement and updated price structure. She explained that the contract cost will be significantly higher next year, but that is because the previous pricing was not sustainable. She stated that they will be reducing the amount of space they are leasing and CTV North Suburbs will be rebranding to Nine North to better set them apart and better define what they do. Montour stated that it was a good idea to remove the contiguous notations in the Joint Powers Agreement since there more cities that are interested in joining.
