'/ /h L'~- / II ~ Iv [~.-______ CONTINUED TO FILE NUMBER CITY MANAGER RECOMMENDED ACTION Award a contract to A-Vidd Electronics Company to provide all labor, materials, and incidentals to implement a community bulletin board system and a stand-alone playback system in the City Hall Council Chambers in the amount of $30,889.25. DISCUSSION The City's existing cable television franchise with Adelphia Communications is scheduled to expire on February 18, 2005. While the terms of a new agreement are not finalized, changes in federal law make it likely that Adelphia will no longer be required to provide the full range of programming services available under the current agreement. These impacted services may include the City's Channel 3 community bulletin board and the playback of recorded City Council meetings. In order to be prepared to continue to provide these basic services, the Parks, Recreation and Community Services Agency recommends the purchase and installation of cable production equipment. The bulletin board system equipment will provide advanced graphics, photography and video for the display of this information to the community. The playback equipment includes a master controller and video record decks to allow for electronic playback of the City Council meetings. 22F-1 CS 383 Contract Award for Cable Casting Equipment (Spec.
