SPONSOR'S Staff is working with Comcast to obtain a Tukwila Government Channel. The channel
SID~l.\RY allows the City to keep citizens better informed of pUblic meetings, school events, City
projects, employment opportunities, and other community events. The estimated capital
cost for the cablecasting equipment is approximately $25,000. The two options are for the
City to absorb the capital costs or have Comcast pass the cost through to the City's
subscribers.
