7 CABLE TV COMMITTEE MEETING MINUTES JANUARY 8, 2018 The meeting was called to order by Chairperson Feddick at 5:31 p.m. in Room 108 of City Hall Plaza. PRESENT: Alderperson Earll, Alanna Feddick, Rachel Zaleski, and Dean Markwardt (arrived at 5:34 p.m.) ALSO PRESENT: Public Access Coordinator Branden Bodendorfer, and Deputy Clerk Panzer EXCUSED: Jim Daniels, April Gentz, and Senen Siasoco PUBLIC COMMENTS None Agenda item 3, Approval of the meeting minutes was moved down on the agenda. CORRESPONDENCE There was no written correspondence. Bodendorfer mentioned that MCTV received a lot of comments from people regarding the live broadcast of the Wood County Board meeting the second week of December. A lot of people reached out and asked if that was something we were going to continue doing. Chairperson Feddick asked if there was a way to get some type of a report of the comments that people have left if we go to Facebook live or some other kind of media, so we can get an idea of some of the comments. Bodendorfer talked to Technology Director Ng about that, because we should be backing up our Facebook page per policy and he believes the comments are turned off right now, but that could definitely be done. Zaleski mentioned that MCTV s YouTube channel doesn t have their comments enabled either. REQUEST FOR EQUIPMENT Bodendorfer reported that he talked to Finance Director Strey about requesting equipment. If the item is under $2,500.00, we can move things about within our budget. Markwardt arrived at 5:34 p.m. We have $1, in our office supply budget that we can utilize for things like CD s, memory sticks, etc., so as long as we don t go over that amount we are able to take care of things like that. Chairperson Feddick asked if any decisions were made about the equipment that Wisconsin Rapids is getting rid of. Bodendorfer received an from Technology Director Ng regarding that equipment. Technology Director Ng has a hard time recommending buying used equipment that is several years old, as the likelihood of failure and being obsolete increases as it ages. He thinks the City would be better off using the money towards a new system, and one that would be better future proof. As of last week, the City Hall relocation team started working with Camera Corner to look at various audio/video options

8 Cable Minutes (cont.) Page 2 for the new Council Chambers, such as reusing the existing TriCaster 40 and sound system versus a whole new setup. They are waiting for Camera Corner to provide proposals at this time. Bodendorfer explained that we can t move the equipment we have in the current Council Chambers to the new City Hall and make the upgrades that the City wants to do. The City wants to get rid of the cameras that they have on the floor and go to PTZ cameras that mount on the walls. In the last few months, we found a couple of cameras from PTZ that still have the tele focus that would be pretty decent and he found two stations in the state that have similar set ups using those type of cameras. He and Technology Director Ng are actually working on scheduling a time to go and view those new Council Chambers. Technology Director Ng and he are contemplating on how they can continue to use the mixer that is still working in the Council Chambers if we upgrade to PTZ cameras. They are also trying to figure out how they can compress the video then so that they can put it on Charter. Zaleski asked Bodendorfer if he could also find out from the people that are using the PTZ cameras if they like them now that they are installed and they are actually using them. There is no request for equipment at this time since the Public Access Coordinator can utilize the budget by moving money around within the budget even if it is moving staffing dollars around to purchase immediate needs as long as the individual purchase doesn t exceed $2,500. At some point in the year, once we determine what the future of communications is and what the whole City Hall structure looks like we should really put together a five year equipment plan. APPROVAL OF MEETING MINUTES CTV Motion by Earll, second by Zaleski to approve the minutes of the December 11, 2017 meeting as submitted. Motion carried REPORT FROM PUBLIC ACCESS COORDINATOR ON HIS VISITS TO OTHER PUBLIC ACCESS FACILITIES Bodendorfer reported that he went on two station tours so far, Wausau and Chippewa Falls. His goal within the next two weeks is to go to Wisconsin Rapids, Sun Prairie, and West Bend. Two of those stations have the new Council Chambers and he wants to go to Wisconsin Rapids because he sees an advantage of us working with Wisconsin Rapids. He would like to see what equipment Wisconsin Rapids has, because they have the ability now to broadcast a feed over the internet. They could be recording the Wood County Board meetings and they could pipe that video feed to our mixer head if we had a compatible system, which would be really cool. Wisconsin Rapids is doing a lot of live streaming right now and they are getting a lot of positive results from it. Between Wisconsin Rapids, Stevens Point, Marshfield, Antigo, and Wausau; the stations that we compare to, Wausau actually puts the least amount of money into their cable programming. We on the other hand put almost $11.00 per citizen into our cable program; and they are down to like $1.50. Wisconsin Rapids puts over $13.00 in per person. Wausau actually bills $30.00 an hour for every hour they work back to the other outlying towns, so it is a direct pay for hire. There is a set charge for their equipment, they pay City Hall rent for their space and then they actually charge back their time to the individual departments that they work for. Chippewa Falls operates on a lot of donations. They do a capital campaign every year where they actually raise about $70,000.

9 Cable Minutes (cont.) Page 3 He is most excited to see how some of the other studios function. He is also curious to see how Wisconsin Rapids in the last year has started to do more new stuff. They do a thing called Shorts, so after Council meetings they will pull one of the Council people aside and basically ask them to give the highlights of the meeting in one minute. It is a really quick little tidbit and then they put it on social media and then they link on the link to the Short, to the actual video. They get 2,000-3,000 people that watch it. It is usually about a minute and a half. It is pretty cool. Zaleski asked if Wisconsin Rapids would charge us if they were able to pipe into us to our mixer. Bodendorfer said he hasn t had that discussion, but he can t see why they would. Maybe we could take turns sending staff. START PROCESS TO GET MCTV S YOUTUBE AND FACEBOOK PAGES SET UP FOR LIVE BROADCASTS OF COMMUNITY EVENTS Bodendorfer reported that we have the ability to do a live broadcast on Facebook. Wood County has a great internet connection. We had no problem there doing the Wood County Board meeting. We can t really do it too efficiently from in the current City Hall building, so at year end, he purchased a $545 thing called a Pepwave to help with our internet connection. It is the same thing the Police Department uses in all of their squad cars. It is like $24 or $27 a month to have unlimited data with it. He hasn t done anything with it yet, but we are good to livestream on Facebook. He would like to do Shorts on things like swearing in new police officers, people retiring, or volunteer of the year for Parks and Recreation to try to build some awareness and then hopefully that would encourage the Council to say we can do this. As far as YouTube, he was able to set up a new YouTube page that was linked to his personal account that is authenticated and we can livestream to. We don t have any followers and he hasn t done anything with it yet. Where he would see us doing this is as a point and shoot thing where we won t upload anything. We would maintain our current YouTube channel where we basically have our archived information, but anytime we want to go live in a sense we would have a link on our Facebook page and on the website that says click here and basically people would click there and it would take them to the feed and the feed is named Marshfield Community Television, not MCTV because that is the name of the other channel and he thinks that is our best approach. It can be transferred if he is not in the picture someday. He can add another individual or another manager that is authenticated and transfer the domain to that person. The only thing is that they would have to meet YouTube s prerequisites (1,000 subscribers, or have 100,000 views or you have to have 10,000 minutes viewed) before you can become a live broadcaster. YouTube is really buckling some of the censorship down and putting prerequisites into play. We do have the ability to livestream on YouTube through different channeling. Zaleski asked if there was a way for MCTV to use their own channel and eventually get authenticated. Bodendorfer said MCTV doesn t have enough subscribers or views. We do have enough view minutes, so we could authenticate it with a social security number or tax id and then have a credit card associated with it. Bodendorfer said we can livestream there and then share it to social media if the everyone is comfortable using this one channel. He personally thinks that livestreaming to Facebook and later uploading to YouTube is best if it is something random, because a quick hit has a lot more capacity to reach people on Facebook. If it is a scheduled meeting like Common Council, he would like to have it on a channel where they know they can go to and it is going to be right there, but we have Granicus for

10 Cable Minutes (cont.) Page 4 that. If they know we are going to be livestreaming an event like a ribbon cutting, he would like them to have a channel to go to versus having to keep refreshing Facebook. Bodendorfer said he could add Rachel Zaleski as an authenticated manager to that one channel. CTV Motion by Markwardt, second by Earll to allow Public Access Coordinator Branden Bodendorfer to proceed with posting community events to Facebook and YouTube and to also allow him to add Rachel Zaleski as an additional authenticated manager for the YouTube channel. Motion carried UPDATE ON DACAST AND DISCUSS TERMINATION OF GRANICUS AGREEMENT Bodendorfer reported that DaCast is up and running. We have tried a couple things with it. He wasn t ready to move ahead with it until we had other sites like YouTube and Facebook that we can publish to, because otherwise if we don t it is just publishing to the website. He met with Technology Director Ng before Christmas and reviewed how the website works, and how we can gain access to it, so that we are able to publish and post stuff to it. Technology Director Ng gave Bodendorfer his blessings. He is still waiting for City Administrator Barg to do the same and then we can start at any time using it and then see how it works and at some point switch out. He also found out too that there are other places that use Granicus that don t pay what we pay. We have an unlimited package. Chippewa Falls pays a monthly threshold based on usage and some months they pay less than $100.00, so he wants to check with Granicus to see if there is something updated with Granicus that he didn t recognize either. Bodendorfer believes he will start using DaCast within the next few weeks, but won t terminate Granicus yet. PUBLIC ACCESS COORDINATOR'S REPORT The Public Access Coordinator's Report for December 2017 was reviewed. (See attached report.) Stephanie Wienke moved to Chicago. Carrie Gillaspie is working full time through mid-january. Bodendorfer would like to do some of the wrestling sports games. Carrie Gillaspie has been doing a lot of stuff lately. We have six to seven prerecorded programs on the shelf right now. Charles Treankler, a teacher at the High School, checked out a camera to film some of the displays at Winder Wonderland that his class programmed the lights for. He might be a gateway to get something going with the schools to start doing stuff with the cameras again. Bodendorfer is also talking with Crystal from the School District. In trying to find someone to replace Stephanie s position, we also reached out to MSTC to see if they had any interns to sponsor whether that was in journalism or web design who might be interested that we might be able to credit. We are going to try to start doing the Wood County Board meetings whenever we feel that there are a couple of topics that relate to Marshfield.

11 Cable Minutes (cont.) Page 5 Bodendorfer is working on an election Forum. MCTV has partnered with Mike Warren from WDLB, Kris Leonhardt from Hub City Times and Focus on Marshfield to do a communication moderation list. MCTV is going to host the Forum. The Forum will be a meet and greet. Kris Leonhardt and Branden Bodendorfer came up with 20 questions off of five different categories. The candidates will have one hour of prep time to review all of the questions. When the hour is up they will come into the studio and Mike Warren and Branden Bodendorfer will draw questions from a hat and basically have an open Forum with each of the candidates. Every Tuesday, Mike Warren is going to simulcast the program on WDLB and then MCTV will use the YouTube channel to simulcast the interviews on MCTV, Focus and Hub City Times. After the Primary, the second or last week in March, they will then do a debate between the two leading Mayoral candidates at the Library or the Senior Center and that will be a live broadcast. Branden Bodendorfer also plans on doing a debate with the 7 th District Council position as well as the Wood County Board positions that are contested. MCTV will not do a debate for school board, because the student Council does that, but MCTV will continue to film that as they have done in the past. Markwardt referred to the Public Access Coordinator s report and the way it is reported. Just about everything lists Tri-Media as a producer or full producer and nowhere does it ever say MCTV. Have we decided that that is the way is supposed to be worded? Bodendorfer explained that the only things that Tri-Media is doing outside of MCTV is the sports and news segments and that is listed as Tri-Media full production. Producer basically is Tri-Media staff at MCTV doing the work. Bodendorfer said he likes the news broadcasts that WDLB does. They are unique, because they are daily and he believes Mike does a really good job on them, but they are really hard from a video standpoint to make it interactive. He doesn t see us getting a lot of traction from it. If you are watching the channel it is a four to five minute filler, but it is not like we air it at a scheduled time. We kind of just pop it in throughout the day as random pieces. We are trying to figure out from a staffing standpoint if we get the feed from him at 9:00 or 9:30 in the morning how much time do we invest. Bodendorfer said for the last four weeks now, he has been trying to find five things topical in Marshfield that is good stuff and trying to create a news segment out of that and then showcase how much traction we get from that. We have been averaging close to 2,000-3,000 views easily every week that we have been doing it. It has been airing every Thursday night at 6:30 on the channel. He shared a clip of one of his news segments, the Top 5 Stories. Markwardt suggested Bodendorfer just list MCTV instead of Tri-Media in his report when it is a MCTV production. Feddick said she doesn t want Bodendorfer to go back and change all the past reports, but going forward use Tri-Media/MCTV. That way we know Tri-Media staff is doing it but doing it under the contract. Bodendorfer said it is a new year and it is the last year of the contract and he asked if there was any type of programming that we would like him to try to develop. Is there any area that you would like us to put more energy into? Markwardt suggested we have a brainstorming session at a future meeting. Chairperson Feddick would like to have the brainstorming session done with a program schedule.

30 City of Marshfield Memorandum February 21, 2018 TO: FROM: Mayor Meyer and Members of the Common Council Dan Knoeck, Director of Public Works SUBJECT: City Hall Cell Antennae Leases T-Mobile On February 20, the Finance Budget and Personnel Committee recommended approval of a lease with T-Mobile for cell antennas and related equipment on City Hall Plaza. Council approval will be given through the consent agenda at the February 27, 2018 meeting. Staff has been working with T-Mobile and the buyers of the building to work out the terms of the lease. The buyers are very much in favor of securing the additional revenue that another long term cell carrier lease would bring. The initial term of the lease is 5 years and there are 5 successive renewal terms of 5 years each for a total of 30 years. The rental price is $2,000 per month with a 3% per year escalator. In addition, the tenant will pay $200 per month to cover electricity usage. One key component that we have been able to work in is the requirement that the tenant move equipment to allow for roof replacement at not less than 20 year intervals. If you wish to review the entire lease or if you have any question prior to the Council meeting, please let me know..
