Meeting Coverage Procedures
Local government meetings are covered gavel-to-gavel (beginning to end) with no editing. Each meeting is cablecast at least twice. Some meetings are covered live with additional tape-delayed playback(s), while others receive tape-delayed playback only.
All of the meetings are closed-captioned, with the exception of North Highlands Recreation and Park District, Sacramento City Unified School District, and Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District.
Metro Cable does not provide dubbing services, nor does it archive or serve as an official meeting record keeper. For official records, contact the Clerk of the respective agency. Meeting copies are available from the Sacramento County Public Library System 7-10 days following meetings.
