We want to ensure that, over the next few years, we are meeting <br /> the needs of our constituents as effectively and efficiently as possible. <br /> <br />We appreciate the opportunity to have an informal conversation with your city council about <br /> the video programming and technical services we provide to the city and to the residents of <br /> St. Anthony. We are also seeking input from the councils of the other member cities, from <br /> the three school boards and from community organizations and agencies with whom we have <br /> worked. Our facilitator, Barbara Raye, the Executive Director of the Center for Policy, <br /> Planning and Performance, will be leading the discussion with you. <br /> <br />We have prepared some material to help the council members understand the North <br /> Suburban Communications Commission and CTV North Suburbs, their sources of funding, and <br /> information on our primary services – programming/video production and training. We have <br /> also pulled out key findings from the two telephone surveys that were conducted on our <br /> behalf last year. (A list of programs produced last year and the complete survey reports are <br /> also attached for those who want more detail.) <br /> <br />We would also like the council members to think about the following questions once they <br /> have reviewed the informational material provided: <br /> <br />1. Do you have any general questions about CTV that are not addressed in the materials? <br /> <br />2. Of the services that CTV provides for local government, i.e., the city, which do you think are <br /> the most valuable? <br /> <br />3. What additional services or programs could CTV offer that would enhance civic <br /> engagement and transparency in local government?
