Damn,will no longer know when the Park dept meets

I don't mind one channel for city council meetings, city announcements, and school projects. But my city wants 4 of these lame channels when they cannot even fill enough programming blocks on one channel. Also people can make up there own minds on whether it is beneficial to have access to these channels. I am so sick of this fight and 911 not being avail on voip. If 911 is something you need, stick with bell. And if you see some sort of benefit from Public Access, then stick with cable. But I can live without any of these.

Wrong kind of channel. You are talking about government access. Often times the number of channels there is more of a political problem than anything else(do you bump the school board meeting for the city council meeting and the city council meeting for graduation?).
The issue above is that public access would no longer be available on cable under the state-level franchise agreements due to a lack of funding.
