Next <br /> In order for MPBC to proceed, the following "Next Steps" need to occur. <br /> ✓ The City Council of South Bend agrees, in principle, with the concept. <br /> ✓ The City of South Bend issues a letter of intent to Michiana Public Broadcasting Corporation to <br /> pursue the project and directs MPBC to consult in the development of a governance plan for the <br /> Talk Show project <br /> ✓ In parallel, the City and MPBC develop an addendum to the existing Public Access Channel <br /> agreement to initiate the added services <br /> ✓ The City approves the final cost estimates and signs the Added Services Addendum. <br /> ✓ The TT governing entity is put in place and liability insurance secured. <br /> ✓ The City advances fees to MPBC to pay for the additional equipment and remodeling required. <br /> ✓ Construction and equipment acquisition /installation are completed <br /> ✓ "Talk of the Town" is launched, approximately 120 days from receipt of equipment funding. <br /> Based on our current understanding of the concept and our interpretation of the technical needs, this is the <br /> best advice and cost estimates we can provide at this time. <br /> MPBC believes this idea has merit, and if executed well, will open new and exciting opportunities for <br /> citizens to weigh-in on issues which impact their lives. <br /> MPBC is happy to assist you in explaining any of the information provided and ideas we have proposed. <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Michiana Public Broadcasting Corporation <br /> Greg Giczi <br /> President and General Manager <br />
