Temple City’s Ticket to Ride CMF Loans Equipment to
Restore Council Broadcasts Prior to last week’s meeting of the City Counci l equ ipment fa i lu res threatened to jeopardize the filming of the meeting. The problems were overcome after only 24 hours thanks to equipment loaned to the city by Community Media of the Foothills (CMF). The nonprofit cable access studio was contracted by the city last year to provide taped, streaming, television and
online archive access to video recordings of meetings of the Temple City City Council. According to a report issued by City Manager Jose Pulido, the city is thankful to the non-profit studio for their efforts, and new replacement equipment had already been ordered. The new equipment is expected to be delivered and in operation within the week.
