,. PIOJIC! IUMMARY: Objectives of Phase II of the project are:
1) to begin programming for Public Access.
2) Implement a community training program that will provide all members
of the community with the opportunity to learn how to use the cameras,
editing equipment, etc. needed to produce programs that can reach the
entire community. This training program will also strive to excite
the community by getting the people involved.
3) Form a non-profit foundation that will direct long-term operation of
the access channel in conjunction with the City Cable Television
Coordinator.
4) Establish a long-term relationship with the local colleges that will
furnish the community with college intern students to assist in
productions, training and special community access projects.
5) Establish production facilities at the new City Library and City Hall
for live and taped broadcasts of community events and issues.
6) Establish a 24 hr. community bulletin board on 2 cable channels to
occupy non-film periods & keep the community informed, as well as
"locking-in" our channel use ~ith the local cable operators.
The City of San Bernardino has shown its commitment to public access by
designating 25% of the franchise fee collected from cable operators
to be spent on Access abilities and cable regulation. The City of
San Bernardino hired a full time Cable Television Coordinator in
August 1986 to monitor cable operations and establish a long-term
access involvement.

Attachment A
NEEDS ASSESSMENT
The City of San Bernardino is served by two major cable
television companies. Each of the operators dedicated one
channel for local access which is primarily programmed with
revenue-seeking ads for the operators and character generated
PSAs. Use by the public for local production films is vir-
tually non-existant. The operators have an obligation based
upon the 80% use formula, to provide an additional channel(s)
for Access, if the need should arise.
The cities residents should have the support, facilities and
training to "get involved" with their surroundings, and be
encouraged to exploit the functions and desires of civic
groups, individuals, and individual causes within the
community.
The City of San Bernardino has taken the responsibility to
provide its citizens the ability to "Access" the media. Now
the City is faced with the need for mobile and studio type
equipment, character generator ability, training facilities,
etc.
We look forward with enthusiasm, to the challenge that awaits
us, and we are anxious to "get the ball rOlling".
Attachment B
PROJECT NARRATIVE
It is the goal of the City of San Bernardino to provide FREE access
to all its citizens. Needed to accomplish this goal, however, is
what seems an endless shopping list of equipment, free training
classes in the use of Cities' equipment, the help and support of
local colleges and schools, community service groups, AND of course,
the long term commitment for help, support and channel space from
our local cable operators.
Bob Senour, Chair, Audio & Video Department at Cal State, San
Bernardino, has pledged his personal support and also that of
his students, to help in programming and training.
Larry Priest, General Manager of Chambers Cable TV and Mike McDonald,
General Manager of Group W Cable TV, have committed their companies
to long-term support of our access commitment. They have agreed to
channel space and assistance in training the public, etc.
The City of San Bernardino will use funds supplied by the Foundation
for Community Service Cable Television to purchase video equipment
and character generation equipment that will allow the City to
provide the needed "access vehicle" to its citizens through FREE
training, FREE production assistance and FREE equipment usage:--

San Bernardino, CA 92401
To Whom it may concern:
This letter is being submitted as a requirement of the San Bernardino Cable
Television Commission's on-going effort to establish public access programming.
Chambers Cable of Southern California, Inc. has always been, and will continue.
to be, a strong supporter of public access programming. For many years our
public access channel has been carrying announcements and educational classes
from California State University at San Bernardino, as well as a Catholic Mass
each Sunday. However, our efforts to promote public access have been very
limited due to the time and financial constraints we face. We are aware of
the Community Cable Television Commission's intent to request funds from the
Foundation in order to increase access to equipment and programming to everyone
in the community. We believe the more people share, the more people will care,
therefore we wholeheartedly endor~e this concept and believe it will be a great
asset contributing to the growth of our city. The community of San Bernardino
would benefit greatly with increased public awareness and involvement through
local news, events and educational programming these funds would provide.
Sincerely, .J

To Whon it nay concern:
The TelecomMunications Department of San Bernardino
Valley College is looking forward to the opportunity
to supply interns for the nublic access channel of
San Bernardino Cable.
The mutual cooperation of the city cable channel
with our department will benefit us in that our
students will get exoerience outside the class or
lab situation that we cannot provide. In addition,
the City Cable Channel will then better be able to
serve the community with their pro-ramming efforts.

II. PROJECT SUMMARY
The objectives of Phase I of the project are:
1. To obtain equipment to begin programming for public access.
2. To implement a training program for persons in the community who will
be responsible for developing the programs for use on the local cable
channels. The City's CATV Coordinator will outline this training
program and establish guidelines for use of the equipment.
There are two cable companies holding franchises in the City of San
Bernardino. Both are supportive of community access programming. However
the contract for these franchises excludes provisions for public access.
To accomplish community generated programming here, it is necessary to
originate the programs from the public library. A brand new library which
opened in October '85 has space and a supportive Head Librarian available
for originating local programming.
To implement the local programming in San Bernardino, the Community Cable-
television Commission will work with the City's CATV Coordinator to acquirl
a minimal equipment inventory and supervise the development of a training
program for interested citizens. Phase II of the project will be developed
jointly lending the expertise of the CATV Coordinator coming on board in
