Budget Impact:

The Shakopee Government Television fund supports the acquisition and maintenance of equipment for the production of city videos and meeting broadcasts. Revenues are collected through cable franchisees’ Public, Educational and Government (PEG) fees. Over the years, PEG revenues have decreased as fewer people subscribe to cable services. In 2021, the city plans to upgrade its video production switcher, which is a key component of broadcasting from the council chambers. This is a significant investment.
