The Nature Trust of BC is a land conservation organization. We assumed the coordination of the Brant Wildlife Festival in 2006 at the request of the Mid Island Wildlife Watch Society, which could no longer continue this role due volunteer burn out and financial constraints. As an active stewardship group in the community, we felt obliged to help out. During the past 4 years, the festival has continued to celebrate nature and the importance of conservation. The festival highlights the annual migration of Brant geese as they rest and feed on the shores of Parksville before flying to their northern breeding grounds. The festival also provides impo1tant economic benefits to local businesses. In 2010, over 3,000 visitors and residents attended events. In 2011, the festival will run from March 5 until April 24 and features a wide variety of events to encourage adults and children to get outside and learn about local wildlife, plants, parks, conservation lands and green spaces. Most of the events take place in Parksville, including the Opening Night at the Parksville Community and Conference Center. The Nature Trust would like to work with the Parksville City Council to ensure the festival continues. Our goal is to deliver an excellent program in 2011 for which we are seeking your sponsorship suppott. We are also asking for your assistance to transition this festival to a local community organization that can take on the coordination of the festival no later than 2013.

January 11, 2011 /\G!:NDA COUiKIL REPORT TO: FRED MANSON, CHIEF ADMINISTRATIVE OFFICER FROM: SUBJECT: DEBBIE TARDIFF, COMMUNICATIONS OFFICER ONLINE STREAMING AND ARCHIVAL OF COUNCIL MEETINGS ISSUE Online streaming and video archival of City of Parksville Council and Committee of the Whole meetings. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: Direction is being sought as to whether the City wishes to proceed with the broadcasting of Council meetings over the internet, using webcast technology. This would include the live online/video streaming and archiving of Council and Committee of the Whole meetings for viewing on the internet. BACKGROUND: In early 2010, the audio visual system in the Forum was upgraded. The space received an enhanced sound system, a new monitor, new projector and the installation of a number of video cameras to accommodate the telecast of meetings. There are a number of possible options for the online streaming of meetings to the web. The option being recommended by staff is a webcasting service used by municipalities, school boards, universities and other levels of governments as well as private industry. Streaming video is a reliable content delivery system that is used to webcast and record public meetings. Webcasting has the ability to connect residents to Council and Committee of the Whole meetings. It may also be used to record such other public meetings as the Advisory Design Panel and Advisory Planning Commission. Many municipalities are able to broadcast live Council meetings through their local cable television service, an option that has not been available to the City of Parksville. Webcasting offers residents the opportunity to view local government at the time of their choice while allowing the City to reach a broader audience. Webcasting provides transparency to residents, helping to bridge the gap between residents and their local government. With the use of a home computer and internet access, residents can watch live and archived meetings from the comfort of their own home. Archived meetings are indexed and made available for viewing on demand. Linked minutes are becoming the standard for local government so that following a meeting, the video, agenda, minutes and supporting documents are linked for future reference. This provides the public with the option to refer back to discussions by Council relating to specific subjects discussed in meetings, not just the outcome of the meetings.
-2- OPTIONS: 1. Direct staff to proceed with the implementation of online/video streaming and archiving of Council and Committee of the Whole meetings. 2. Direct staff to complete a request for proposal process. 3. Request additional information from staff. 4. Maintain the status quo. ANALYSIS: 1. Real-time online video streaming as well as archived video of Council and Committee of the Whole meetings will increase the City's reach of residents interested in viewing meetings. Residents will be able to view the meetings via a live webcast, viewed directly from the City of Parksville's website. The majority of residents do not personally attend meetings, however, with webcasting, they have the opportunity to view meetings on demand. All age groups are becoming web savvy and there is now an expectation for online access. Generally, municipalities find that viewership of meetings increases. The ability to monitor viewership statistics is accessible to the City at any time. A recent study by Pew Research Centre for People and the Press speaks to the growth of the internet as the main source of news for the public. In all age categories, the internet has gained in use with people over 65 as the fastest-growing group of internet users. In 2010, the internet surpassed TV as the main source of news for people younger than 30 and all age categories show gains in internet use over TV. The isi Global proposal is the most reasonably priced as well as the best solution to the need. isi Global offers an unlimited number of webcasts and views, both live and archived. The system is designed for ease of use and flexibility and upon completion of training, staff will be familiar with the process to initiate a live webcast or schedule webcasts up to a year in advance. Upon completion of any live webcast, the streaming media file will be automatically posted to the isi Global server and made available to the public. The media content is hosted and streamed on isi Global's server and available seamlessly via the City's website. Staff time is required to complete the indexing of the archives once the webcast is completed. The timeline to implement the system through isi Global is three weeks, from set up to official launch. An adequate internet connection is necessary for a successful live webcast. This may be done using the existing PCTC internet connection or a dedicated Shaw internet for a higher speed connection. This system allows for an unlimited number of meetings to be recorded and archived, as well as unlimited viewing. 2. A formal request for proposals was not distributed. Proposals were considered from the American firm, Granicus, Inc, isi Global based in Ottawa and Trinex Internet Solutions, the City's website provider. There are many webcasting companies, however, very few that work directly with municipalities and even less that are Canadian companies. There is no local company with the capability to link agendas and minutes to the archived video of meetings. It is felt that a call for proposals will not result in a different outcome and will in fact, delay the opportunity to proceed with broadcasting of Council meetings.
-3-3. Request additional information from staff. 4. Maintain the status quo. FINANCIAL IMPACT The cost per year for the service provided by isi Global is $5,000 based on a three-year contract; a one year contract is $7,500 per year. The 2011 communications budget included an amount of $5,000 for webcasting. If deemed necessary, the dedicated high speed internet connection would be $75 per month. Staff time will be required for set up and training and for the ongoing indexing of archival video. STAFF RECOMMENDATION THAT the report from the Communications Officer dated January 11, 2011, entitled Online Streaming and Archiving of Council Meetings, be received; AND THAT staff be directed to proceed with the implementation of online/ video streaming and archiving of Council and Committee of the Whole meetings.

Bylaw No. 1470 - Page 2 (2) The Commission may advise Council, when requested, on any matter respecting land use, project design, landscaping, or community planning and may also investigate and survey the physical, environmental, social and economic conditions in relation to matters considered by it.

(1) Council, by resolution, shall appoint members to the Commission in such manner to ensure an annual rotation of at least a minimum of three of the membership. (2) The Commission shall consist of seven members of which at least 213rds of the members shall be residents of the municipality. (3) Commission members shall hold office for a term of two years.
