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’ PEG fees. Over the years, PEG revenues have decreased as fewer people subscribe to cable services. In 2023, the city plans to upgrade its video hosting and livestreaming software, which will streamline our video indexing capabilities and provide more storage space to continue archiving video and audio recordings of public meetings.
