Chapel Hill, N.C. 27514 Dear Dr. Mayer and Gentlemen: WCHL and Village Cable's Chapel Hill-Carrboro Forum was a significant success by every measurement we use. Perhaps its most important immediate outcome is that it convinced me, .and those of you with whom I have talked, about the ability to go ahead and move immediately on making available your regular discussions . to the widest possible audience through exposure through cable TV. At one time or another, I have discussed with nearly all of you the benefits of. an inter- agency partnership to combine the cost of a production package to cablecast all of your public meetings. The principal benefits are: 1) By combining costs, we significantly lower the entry level expense to begin the project. 2) By combining resources, the pooled funds can buy significantly enhanced production capabilities which, if paid by a single agency, might prove. to be unacceptably expensive in one lump. And,. 3) The equipment can be used with more efficiency and less waste than if • each agency begins with its own equipment, which would. sit idle during • the time when you were not in session. • • Village Broadcasting,Inc.WCHL.Chapel Hill.N.C. • Village Communications,Inc.WKOO.
