Mediacom Cable Report There was no Mediacom Cable Report. Council Goal Setting The Commission discussed their activities over the course of the fiscal year to determine their successes as requested for upcoming City Council goal-setting sessions. They also discussed possible future initiatives considering the gradual loss of the City's regulatory authority over the cable company due to state and federal laws, and especially considering the 2007 state franchising law enacted by the lowa legislature. Vincent moved to make the PEG Fund/grant process as the Commission's success and expanding the Commission's scope of duties to include other communications paths and becoming a better resource to maximize the benefits of the PEG Fund as two initiatives for the coming year. The motion was seconded by McMullen and approved 5— 0. Cable TV Report Nowack provided an update on the status of the current grant projects, noting that last week he and Moeller installed the new digital recording decks and that much of the equipment for the public access control room at Mediacom was in. The new playback servers for Mediacom and Loras College have been ordered, and he is waiting for signed grant agreements from the school district before ordering their servers and equipment. He also discussed recently completed productions that are now airing on CityChannel Dubuque.
