PROGRAMMING NOTES:
On September 23rd the Director met with Dr. Groveman, Principal Sartos and High School Video club advisor Mr. Dave Barbari to discuss suggestions the Director made within his SBC-TV Assessment Report. SBC-TV would like to see Saddle Brook High School implement a video production/post-production curriculum for students. A broad range of topics were discussed; equipment loans from SBC-TV to the High School for editing, erecting a small studio within H.S., training for students by taping Board Of Education meeting, broadcasting live from H.S. for scholastic and sporting events etc. The High School principal and the Superintendent of schools are very interested in formulating a program as soon as possible.
It is now in the hands of the Mayor's office.
As of NOVEMBER 16TH we have heard NOTHING. Still waiting!
This will all be moot if no budget is passed for SBC-TV operations

SBC-TV is pleased to announce that after the shutdown of SBC-TV on
12/31/08, we have made arrangements with CABLEVISION OF OAKLAND to continue airing all Council Meetings on Cablevision's Public Channels. This will NOT include LIVE programming in an emergency, bulletin board announcements or local programming such as Township activities or sporting events but will allow for continued public awareness of Township Government meetings. This will also allow for a much wider viewing public since these channels will be available throughout Bergen County. This contingency has been put in place when it will become necessary after 12/31/08
This videotaping will NOT be done by SBC-TV. Cablevision WILL NOT be taping meetings. Video production will HAVE to be done by independant volunteers. If you would like to continue to see council meetings on the air then volunteer your time to help! Please contact SBC-TV ASAP.
