 I'd like to call the Community Television of Sadikers County Board of Directors meet regular meeting February 27th, 2014 to order I'd like to do roll call, mine here, Nathan's here, James is here, Tess is not at the moment, Joe is not, Karen is, Matilda, Dory, Alu, Adam, Thomas here, so we have a quorum, this is time for oral communications, is there anyone who would like to address the floor, I don't see an audience so let's skip that one, consideration of late additions to the agenda, I would like to add to the agenda, I guess it would be nine, a resolution to change the signers on the checkmate, anything else, anyone else have a suggestions for the agenda, okay, the consent agenda includes two items, approve the minutes of the previous board meeting on January 11th and approve the recommendation of the finance committee, the finance committee did not have a quorum, Tess and I went through the finances and we talked to Kathy and everything seems fine and we'll leave that to her, so we're going to strike five from the consent agenda and at least four on the consent agenda, I'm in commotion, I move that the approve the minutes from the regular board meeting January 11, 2014, all those in favor, I'll go to the regular agenda and we have the oral report of the executive director. So I've passed out a written report as well just to supplement my oral report, so I wanted folks to hear a couple of really key things, we are about six months through our transition, so I think that's important, so just yay, so we're very happy about that, staff and board members have been working really hard and I just I want to really acknowledge Keith because I could not have done this work without him, just getting started, so we have two chairs if you would like to join us and are there additional ED report packets that we can give to these two, perfect, exact right number for that, so I was just pointing out a little bit of celebration guys that we are halfway through, we're six months through this year long contract with both the county and also between CMAP and CTDs, so I was also wanting to really acknowledge Keith because Keith has been doing every, I mean he might as well be washing the dishes, thankfully he hasn't had to do that, but he's been doing everything else and I just really want to acknowledge him, it wouldn't have been possible I think for any ED to come in and be able to do this kind of really difficult change management work that we had to do this year with that support, so thank you, so and I also want to acknowledge the staff, you know I think any kind of big transition like this is really difficult and both staff and our members and volunteers have really been supportive especially in the last couple of months and so we've made a lot of strides and thanks to the support of the county as well for having faith in us, appreciate that, please pass that on to everyone at the county, so staffing changes I just have highlighted a couple of achievements and because you haven't had time to read it I will read a few of the key ones out loud to you and then if you have any questions please feel free to ask, you know the main changes that we've made since your last meeting that we were I think in January but also really kind of talk more about some of the transition back in November, we really made a lot of changes that would minimize our expenses one of the things that Keith and Tess looked at when they were looking at the finances is that we're at about what 51% of the expended income and yet we are at about 58 plus percent of the income in so where our expenses are less than our income coming in so far so that's really good so we're happy about that we need to continue on that path and actually that'll be even more true I think after we have paid all of our obligations out to former employees and bills that we have now minimized so there's a number of things some small you know not getting the sentinel paper every day you know $20 off our budget every day we can go online to really large things like having two bills for insurance that we really didn't need and minimizing but still offering same benefits so just looking for ways to do that we've been doing that quite a bit we've created a lot of automation and efficiency and we've reorganized how the work actually is done at CTV we've really increased staff accountability a lot and we've reduced our staff resources and our expenses in that area we've been training staff since day one to build their capacity and we're creating internal policies that really clarify and correct some of the policy challenges that have been had by this organization in the past and I think that's making folks of the county really happy to see that movement and that progress forward and it's making us really happy as well so some of those areas the technology changes you can look through those I think we've talked a lot about them Nick also talks about it in the programming update that's later on my ed report we have a certified volunteer program and also fee based services that we're going to be providing those are really the only two user groups at CDV anymore so there are the certified volunteers and there are the fee based users so when we talk about membership we are still asking people to be members but membership means something really differently than it meant in the past it means that you can either use the fee based services and take classes or you can become a certified volunteer and participate and receive sort of store credit for your work here at CTV as a volunteer and we are going to have volunteers work on some paid productions and some productions we call them at CMAP we don't come up with a name here we call them cover three because they are coverage of one of the three communities we serve need to come up with a name here but basically we can have people go out and provide community coverage but it's all volunteer and it's not something we can guarantee anymore because we don't have funding for that the volunteer program has been going along very well we have a new security system and key cards that will be giving us data online that will be launching we did get approval on the loan just yesterday so after we can get I've just gotten them all the there was a few more pieces of paperwork from our insurance company that they needed additionally they also went through some changes over there during our application process so we have all new people we're dealing with so that's been actually fine but it did take a little bit longer than we expected we purchased some of the equipment just out of the operating funds Keith it authorizes to go ahead on some of that because we needed to do some of those changes quickly and then with regard to the main studio build we are behind on that come on in the main studio build we won't be able to do until we actually get the loan in our hands but it's a cash secured loan I think everybody probably was at the retreat your members having that discussion it's so that we can then pay ourselves back for capital expenses later on down the road so I do want to mention we'll be creating still in able to do free PSAs for nonprofit groups and so it's going to be volunteer days keeps actually offered to kind of take the lead and work with our team a volunteer team on that we've done a lot of work around professionalizing our reputation in our content and I really want to emphasize how difficult that process has been because it's taken a lot more time than we ever anticipated here we thought we were just going to come in and be able to start doing productions and get to work but actually a lot of the work that we've had to do is repairing our reputation with clients every single client that we worked with was problematic there hasn't been one who was like oh you guys are great every single one said you didn't meet the deadline you didn't make the changes I asked for I had something that I asked you for in May of 2012 and I've still never seen it so we've had a lot of problems around that and I just want to be very honest that that's a problem we had to come in and make some changes around so I want to really give kudos to Jeremy Wayland who's our new director of product productions and content who's done a very good job on repairing those relationships he writes really great emails and he is personal touch with all these clients in person is really great as well and he's been doing productions literally within a 24-hour turnaround time he will go out and shoot it calls them hyper productions and he'll go out and shoot something and then literally have it already edited and up and on the cable channels no later than the next day just a question of the clients you want to talk to that where you were dealing with our historically bad reputation yes are they receptive to the fact that you make changes or are I think most of them are I think there's one that we're having to prove ourselves to through an event that we're doing in two weeks so we'll see how he feels after we finish that I mean we literally didn't I think we gave them half price this year and last year we didn't even deliver the product to him so he has reason not to feel good about us but we are going to be shooting this event it's great content for the channels as well and he's also paying us for it and we are getting so few new clients too which is great we did the wrestling high school wrestling last Friday four cameras shoot little more work than the typical hyper production where you're just going out and shooting one topic really quickly but definitely a lot of those kinds of things as well so we are bring we're generating money coming in and I think that will continue we only have Jeremy 20 hours a week right now he's sort of a little skewed to the CTV direction we're going to be pulling him back over the hill soon but I think this kind of cleanup work required a lot of time I will move on the relaunch is happening on April 15th we like I said we're gonna be charging for services that we want to offer for free and we'll be relaunching the cable channels we're actually starting with the you dot gov so we have the you dot gov cable channel that is has mostly been channel 25 I get that I was gonna say 17 I'm like wait a minute that's not that's email so channel 25 has traditionally been the government channel so we're trying to schedule it so that it is really the only government channel 26 is the cruise channel and 27 is the community channel one of the things I would love feedback offline from board members maybe after this meeting or shooting email as to what you would like to call the community channel because free speech TV and keep Santa Cruz weird been ruled out but what is a way that we can kind of encourage the community to participate in the public access channel through the name and then we'll be doing a logo contest for that as well on 99 designs or one of those websites and very soon but we will have already kicked off the other two channels before we do that the event we're going to be holding here we'll have the new studio ready and we would love for you please to all put that in your calendar from 5 to 7 on April 15th yes it is tax day and it was actually a local elected former elected official who said why don't you do it on tax day because it's something positive is happening on tax day so we might get some good news around that so we're hoping to pitch that with our messaging hot manheim has offered to help me on messaging strategy so you know the press release and the next steps forward on that and then I think one of the things that we sort of had interrupted slightly as we had our development director do early retirement he's now left the organization and so in lieu of having a development director in lieu of having bookkeeping staff or an operations coordinator we are having take on a lot of work right now so we do have some just some contract-based work for a bookkeeper a couple hours a week coming in and helping us I am also writing checks and helping to mail things today I got to do the mail and we also have an AmeriCorps that I've taken over supervision of and also Jeremy has just started doing the weekly meetings with him and supervision of him but I'm doing all the reporting we did meet with our auditor which I think is an important thing to report back on we'll be preparing financial new financial policies that will come to the March meeting they'll go to the finance committee first and then we'll be bringing them to you to tighten up our policies here and make sure that we were doing pretty well as it turned out I mean there was nothing there was no red flags that we heard from him but there were some good questions that we asked about the way so do you think one of which is you know he didn't have any answer for but do we have to pay do do volunteers have to pay taxes if they're getting stored credit or how does that work is it just a trade and barter is actually taxable so it's all difficult we have some questions that we have to get answered around now let's see I put a lot of things under here under the benefits just so that you understand kind of what we have taken on in terms of some new work in the last month and we've been doing a lot of outreach and partnerships which is really exciting we'll be rolling out new websites at both of our organizations priority and so we will be saving staff resources because we won't need developer we want to hire a Drupal developer to work on that so we'll be saving funding and it'll be really easy for both volunteers and staff to make updates to that site yeah and the Denver tools Nick was just I thought he was gonna bounce off the walls last week he's so happy because you know we've really taken a big risk to be sort of bleeding edge with the Denver open media tools and it's really paid off the volunteer tracking tools are totally working which is great and we'll be launching those on April 15th as well so we're excited to have a lot of automation online that will realize to do things that we used to have to have people be doing and we just don't have the resources for anymore and the last thing I'll mention is lots of work with Rotary and a lot of presentations for me this last month last couple weeks and still some to come we are meeting the county on Monday to present to the CAO's office and to Susan Morello and we did also meet today with the new owners of this space to talk about the future opportunities I think there's some good opportunities there to stay here for a little bit longer and then we also are working with the Watsonville Film Festival on a youth project so that we can utilize the funding that we got but didn't spend about a year and a half ago we were supposed to spend more funds in South County and the Irvine Foundation gave us a little more time and so we're able to put together a partnership with the Watsonville Film Festival includes a three-day youth media workshop we're really excited about that so I've been meeting with the mayor of Watsonville and the film festival organizers and there's some good partnerships that we're developing there that's great so very busy month I guess I've done an enormous amount of work thank you for that thanks so there's any questions I also have needed out a org chart I think to have that print it out so there's also there's no executive director in here but don't be alarmed the executive director with report to your board and manage the station director and then also manage CMAP but as you know the executive director and IT manager from CMAP are only going to be 1.67 days per week moving forward after July 1st that's what we would be willing to negotiate of course that's based on whether or not you guys decide to move your contract forward oh and we're hiring a station director right now so the hiring committee is giving me suggestions for potential candidates and then we will be doing interviews next Thursday and Friday and then do a second round of interviews probably sometime after the evening I hope to have somebody in place here before the before the launch obviously any other questions for the director okay I think I heard you say and I was more next Friday I took that out from the minutes I think I heard you say but it was real fast so that the capital expenditures we got a good loan we said did you say that we were able to to get the loan from the bank and yeah we was approved yesterday and the credit union and it's cash secured against our money market account what we had proposed to the board at the last meeting that approved took about a month yeah that's what they said it would take and so it takes them once they approve it it takes a couple of days for them to do their processes to get the paperwork ready for me to sign so I'm waiting for them to call me in to sign paperwork so Nick is able to go out he can't yet but when we have signed all the paperwork then I will authorize him to go ahead and make the purchases he's been waiting but he knows exactly what he wants oh yeah oh yeah that was part of their capital plan that we wrote and that's all available yeah yeah he's been working with the vendors on that yeah we're so quick because that was such a great experience last meeting that we were going to do that yeah we did spend I think the part that was might have been quick too is that we had to spend some money out of our operating about 13,000 I think to start on some of the things that we needed before that he had to start moving on but but the good news is that there'll still be quite a bit that we could pay ourselves back at the capital expense come next time we can discuss it or no the fee is the fees no okay because it was in the governance documents let me check to make sure sorry you know you know I feel like I don't even want to bring this up but I love these reports but I think last meeting we talked about getting these before so I feel remiss if I didn't bring that up okay I usually do I actually last time I did have it before this time I he said I was just going to do an oral report I just just to honor the conversation last time I absolutely I feel like that was clear in my mind and I looked at the packet before this meeting and this was not it was it was it do we not have a report to the board last time from the ED in writing I don't know but it's it's nice to have this before so I can review it and then maybe I have some questions rather than spot I don't feel like asking a question so maybe two for the next agenda we could say written and oral report from the ED so that it's not yeah so that I'm also really clear I don't know my board has asked for the same thing and I don't know that there's anything to do about it but but is it that evening like the first night in Passover is the Monday night I think it's the money and I'm just really do you think that it would prevent people from coming out that evening I if it's the first night but not the second night we can also just do a launch and then we can have a party on Friday night that's true I mean there's no I think the whole idea was just that started the 14 there yeah begins 14 Monday the 14th show do folks feel like I don't know much about Passover so I'm do folks feel like if we get it on Tuesday or Wednesday I think the first night is the most important first night yeah the first night is we might also just I'm still working with staff on the details I really wanted them involved in the planning for that so we met on Friday for our staff meeting and kind of talked about what they want to do and they have lots of ideas but they also are really busy so we have to see what what we can really do I think we talked about doing breakfast and evening event and I think probably what we'll just do is an evening event but we may want to do that on Wednesday because Tuesday is also when government meetings are so we may not get elected it's coming and so maybe Wednesday might be a better day but we can do like a press release for the 15th be open that night if people want to come by but then have the event the next day you know because we just have an event at last and so we also thought that maybe Santa presents wouldn't show up for a 730 breakfast I'm having trouble finding them actually yeah so I'm looking through to find the policies that that I'm looking for it yeah I'm just wondering if we called it something else because I'm not well how about if we go to the next it's called draft rules underscoring Nick and Kathy I apologize I really saw the Nick part you don't think it starts with draft rules no because that's the procedure stuff I don't think the fee based I think it is yeah I see it so we decided that we really wanted ctv policies underscore Nick KB dot dot well it's not inside of it yeah it's the I have the original okay because it's hard for me to remember everything off the top of my head there's a lot but I can I can think of some of the different fees if you want to find it so you know as we've talked about in the past we're going to have fee-based services here at CTV so one of the things that we're going to be charging for is checkouts and reservations and they're really really inexpensive and we sort of feel like it's going to be a spectrum so because we have in charge fees for things in the past we want to start kind of small so it's going to be $20 for a 24 hour check out so it's nothing at all close to I mean that would be like double that for or triple that for hourly in the commercial world but we're going to start at $20 an hour for the camera checkouts so we make it really accessible to people and then one of the good things is that we can then grow that we can kind of go up in tiers so go up to 40 an hour on a day and then maybe 50 a day yeah and and you know if you had to rent a camera commercially it might be like $100 a day you know or more so we feel like we're starting really good at a good level for folks to make it accessible and then the editing suites I think for the editing suites we're doing a little bit of moving things around so that we can make the editing suites look nicer and more attractive to people and we're also going to a make my I don't need an office so we're going to make my office into a hot studio so you come in and you can make you know PSA in there or you can have a talk show so it'll be really manageable for folks to use if we have all the equipment that we can use there and it's also just people can see it when you're walking by so we figure that'll be kind of a good good thing as well and then the studio rentals themselves are at an hourly rate the material is going to look up for me the fee I feel the good means it was 22 $22 sorry $22 a day for which for the field equipment all the field of women yep and then for the studio does that include lawyers that would include basically our standard kit yeah and include mics and that we include probably letting kid in that as well we want to make sure people have a good shoot a lot of what we had to do in the governance docs is really change the language around all kinds of things really you know we no longer have third-party agreements we just have users who pay services pay fees for services and we have volunteers certified volunteers you know producers we really are sort of seeing producers differently you know they're users now so things you look when you look at that yeah do you remember the studio numbers I can't remember a minimum of a three hour oh yes that's right so we'll have 16 slots a week on Thursday Friday Saturday night 75 $75 per session so you basically get a three hour block now 25 dollars an hour but we're not saying 25 dollars an hour because you can't rent it by the hour right you have to have it for a three hour slot because that's how long it takes people to produce a shit of one hour a half or half an hour to half an hour shows they can produce as much content as they want in that three hour block but they have to rent it out as a block and editing you also say $22 per day per hour so edit so the editing suites are $22 per hour the camera equipment is $22 per day and the studio is $75 per block so those are the three and I think you mentioned something about if it was because I think you said something about that it would be less if it was a fairly short production no I don't think so I think that we because it the problem is we don't want to be nickel and diamond we really don't we have a system already online that sort of has has set been set up this way because we it's more work for us to have many people come in and do shorter term rentals or have you know you know or more volunteers coming in and out and in and out and out we just we just don't have a staffing for that now so we want people to really do those blocks there's going to be a lottery for shows this is something I think that's important for people just to know is that you know people some people have had the same blocks for 18 years or 10 years or however long we can't we can't manage that that way anymore so the way that we're going to do it is we're going to be doing a lottery for either the certified volunteers or for users to come in and do their shows so they're paying for the service and then there's a lottery for use of that studio and I don't know if we're going to do the lottery just for the certified volunteers and we would provide paid hours certain hours but probably we're not going to do a lottery for everybody just to make it easier for us and I think another key component that you mentioned is that when a user books the service their volunteer hours are charged right they don't get a refund if they don't show up they pay for it when they book the service just like you would pay for anything online you know if you buy tickets online you don't get a refund if you decide not to come so that's the same with us you book the service you show up or you somebody wants to transfer those to somebody else I know we talked about that because we do realize that there may be instances that would be an executive director decision about some of that I mean you know in the case of that or God or something I mean there may be things that we can figure out but I think I think there's a provision in here that says that this executive director still has the ability to maybe make some decisions around the other thing that you put in here was so we see we worked and I think it's on the agenda but we worked here I looked at what Kathy and naked on the policies and procedures and that's what we were sent I noticed that there was also something in there that people lose equipment and then there's a certain process for that yeah and really we want to move to making it sort of more the way that you deal with the business you know if you don't bring a rental like if you rent stuff for a wedding and you don't bring it back you get taken a small claim score I mean you know it's very nice of us to be like oh we'll let you pay it off for three months but really we're kind of positioned where we can't really offer that and then it's also a lot of administration for us to have to keep track of so we have to be really careful about making decisions like that because it's a liability for the organization to have to you know be too much bending over backwards which we've kind of done a lot of that in the past and we're kind of not in a position to do that anymore and that led us right into the fact that Matilda put in the board packet the proposed policies and procedures they're there for you to read and look at that we don't need any kind of action at this item it will go to the government's committee again for one final review before it comes back to the board can we discuss a couple of those highlighted things I was going to ask a question about the highlighted things because it's not tracked so I didn't know if that was these were completely new or just areas where things have changed you know the high a lot of us has changed we have givens already several people the opportunity to look at our work in progress now what we did was we chunked everything that the governance committee has looked at twice Kathy and Nick have looked at it and he and I Nathan has looked at you know it was all you know struck out different color for this blue for her red for because Kathy the Angelo and Craig Colton had done a lot of stuff work also before we got started on this but it became too cumbersome and also too long so he said why don't we just take out everything that we have already a couple times said strike it out strike it out and so governance has looked at twice so this is the results of all of that work Kathy from Craig from us the governance them and then again the governors know that so but I highlighted a couple things that I think still need to be even clear what do we mean and one of the things is the first one is that we talked about where Nathan and Nick about the term of user and producer because it appears to us that we have users who use the facilities and do things but they're not necessarily not necessarily all of them being producers with you know renting equipment in the studio they may they may work on editing or you know get some cameras or something but not necessarily the producers in the bigger sense so we then added do you remember Nathan that for the purpose of this document a user who reserves the studio equipment is called a producer I'm a little concerned that maybe the changes that Nick and I made didn't make it into this document oh yes they did okay because so maybe you guys may changed it back I don't know because we took out producer entirely right a little search for producer at every case yes and so we because sometimes it doesn't work to use the word user because the since I've been changed it but or kept it the word user doesn't always work but just sometimes really you mean a producer is this something we could have a conversation in the government's community about come join agree because I think we could wait so I mean I probably would waste your time because I might not agree with how we might want to manage that language and I just want to explain to people why there's a hard on people you know please give us feedback on that but that was one of the areas and when I did go you know I looked for everything but producer and the user it chromatically and conceptually it just didn't make any sense to always call somebody who would be called the user producer only a user it didn't make any sense so that's one item and then the next one that is highlighted is though and for clarification no refunds will be made on canceled reservations preventive equipment and studio I just want to make I just want to know this was about canceling a reservation correct so I just want to make sure that that we didn't look over it but that this is exactly what we want to do and so if that's the case the next item is there were a couple things the first one is Nathan asked us to Nathan asked us to define hate speech have you had some chance to think about it some more it's in the potentially objectionable program content you know excessive or fainting with excessive nudity sex activity and that's why it's highlighted we can do that because Nathan's on the government okay so you want to do it there yeah then on the series program there was there are three three paragraphs studio series producers may deserve a tradition transitional studio time slot depending on the length of their program and the availability of the time slot I wasn't well I think we have changed it to staff had wanted that to be a lottery based system so it sounds like it got changed and I'm so I it's hard for me to address that because I think we wanted to be a lottery system because that makes it more efficient for us they would require us more staff time if we're managing those reservations differently we needed to work with the online system and that's that's sort of the priority is to make sure that the time slot that we have can be managed effectively online so it sounds like we need you and Nick to give this a real close look we did but some of the things that she's raising or things we don't maybe don't agree on well it's not so much agree upon it's just that since I didn't understand what it meant I wasn't sure because I think it was still in your in your piece that may have overlooked it but it as far as I know it was still in there and I'll check that but I just didn't understand it so if this is of no no transitional slots and permanent slots are no longer in existence then we just jump it yeah right I'm a little concerned because the I can't find the original so if I may I think the point at this meeting is to say that the highlighted areas are still going to be discussed but you know I mean I mean those are the only knocker to come up with a resolution no I would love to know what a user versus a producer and all that is but I trust the government's what about the expulsion from your organization is that it an importance to all of us that we have that but wait isn't it the case that this is going to be tailored further by a committee and brought to this or for what the committee would recommend final approval and if this board at that time on the document that's being recommended for final approval has comments or desires further work on it this board would then direct that at that point well that's what we did and so this is what we got so far I mean if you still don't want to see it then that's okay I'm hearing from the executive director certainly and just from the fact that there are highlighted sections here that require further work is that this isn't being brought to this board for a recommended final approval no that's not what we're saying we just want to get some input and I agree if this board would take time to look at that and give the committee some feedback about its thoughts in particular about the highlighted portions like then the committee could go to work on that hopefully bring it back to this board in a final form or a proposed final form and I the question was why is there highlighted right and that we answered that question yes right okay but anyway so your government is you know that's your permission we're going to continue working on it okay the next item on there was that never the auditor Kathy mentioned that already the key thing for this board is that the auditor mentioned that in the past we had a person who every month did all the little things that had to happen to make the month close and be okay we don't have that person on staff now so the auditor recommended we have a list of things that must be done every month not the things we already know what those things are signing off on the bank statement but having a list sign off on the bank statement we do this which both the auditor and the executive director every month sign off and keep in a file for the order so those policies have been given to Kathy to come up with a policy and your plan I believe is to have that for the next board and it has to go through the treasurer first so Joe needs to approve that and the finance committee needs to look at it as well okay good and one other thing that will affect this board is that the auditor recommended that the finance committee meet a week before the board and also that we don't like that it's actually preferable to bring things quarterly to the whole board but that the finance committee meets and checks in or the treasurer meets and checks in every month then the finance committee meets quarterly brings things to the board quarterly they're still accessing the the the reporting but that you're not bringing the reporting to the full board every single month there's most nonprofits don't do that okay and then we did put an agenda item 9a on here which we need to change the emergency addition we need to change the signers on the checking account that's correct James yeah and I actually have a resolution here can I go ahead and just read the resolution and what we're going to be doing here right now it's to approve the following board officers and employees as signers on the Santa Cruz community credit union account and that's going to be Keith a budget we're going to have Matilda run I ran I believe still on that account or I've been trying to get myself okay you'll take care of it so you know I've tried okay and so you would this would be to approve you as well in there myself James Fisher Joe Hall and then MK Bisbee otherwise is happy and that is what this resolution is right I am making a motion that we approve this second okay the next item is the report of the chair I wanted to report that some of the volunteers specifically Sandra Lee has set up a temporary studio in Boulder Creek which is up and working and some of the members have already produced shows and also seems to be very happy with it so we have happy members and content is still being produced even though it's down actually our camera person here is smiling and I mean that our equipment or is it is our old equipment and help set it up there is the old post office I'd like to go in there take a little tour of is that going to be a permanent I made a sort of exception to we don't really have a policy we were made a request by a member until we granted their request for a time period while we were closed I think at the end of you know when we reopen we'll consider moving forward it seems like it's going well so you know I think we want to continue with it we plan to have a spring break event with conjunction with Boulder Creek Rick district that's been approved by the district I understand yes there's been in touch with Hallie and they're moving right along so that's wonderful yeah that's about it any board member or staff request for specific items if you're on the next meeting when is the next meeting four weeks from the day of March 27th I'll be in Ireland 27th you can't skip it from the plug we would like to see Ireland it'll be green it'll be great it's time for the finance policies will be at the Mars board meeting yes yes I'm curious are we going to be able to keep the slots we have on the air when we buy these channels and so on so well the slots that we used to have on the air have already changed because members upload their own content to the channels and so they self-select what blocks of programming they want to be scheduled based on what's available all done online now so I will stay where I am if I choose so so it'll depend on what's available on the I find out because there's no point in my continuing programs if I'm not gonna have a serious program yeah so your serious program is still the same time it's still ready for right now it's still the same are you doing a live show are you turning in a program I'm turning in so and are you turning it in online digitally now yes that's great so when you choose how when you when you choose how you want to schedule it that's what you get so you probably already that won't change as well my question that probably not because you've already been getting that same time right right so as long as it's really in the hands of our users now it's you you as members there are advertisers you know the seniors every Thursday and Saturday it's really your choice as you go into the system when you're when you're putting it in a programming block so I didn't know whether I somebody but you can't have that anymore somebody else's but to be clear it is first come first serve it is correct all right well we're through with the regular part of the board meeting we are doing now to adjourn and to close session pursuant to government code 54956.9 conference legal counsel so I'd like to do that at this point so you want a motion to adjourn
