Dear
fellow Hanoverians:

 =

Interested
in community access TV?  With $182K recently appropriated from town =
meeting, it’s
coming to Hanover, but only with your help.  This just in from the =
Selectmen!

 =

The
Community Access TV Committee will be starting from scratch and building =
our
government, educational and public TV (PEG) for the town.  The =
committee will
be setting policy, purchasing equipment, hiring, directing employees and
managing content.  The committee has the responsibility to ensure =
Hanover
school students and cable subscribers are getting value from the PEG. =
 The
schools have a great interest in using the PEG for educational =
purposes.  Also
today there is no ability to have government meetings live on TV. There =
is an
ongoing funding source, as a percentage of the subscriber’s cable bill =
goes to
funding the PEG committee.  There are many other towns that have a =
PEG in place
that the committee can visit to help them understand best practices. =
 You don’t
need to have a technical background to join the committee; we already =
have two
technical people on the committee.  It is a one year =
appointment.  Contact the Selectman’s
Office at selectmen@hanovermass.com
or 781-826-2261 for more information or to indicate your =
interest.

On
an unrelated note – happy last day of school today for =
Hanover’s
kids!  Enjoy the summer!
