Jennifer,
just wanted to ask if Jeff or ECO is directly paying WOKC or as a reimburserr�ent in kind to the city? We have a contract
for the City for $200. (its unclear if this is for the townhall itself and other i:s candidate forum?)
Also I wanted to ask, if we do not have questions from the public, do you h��ve some previous questions from past
events we can utilize?
I am going to volunteer to screen questions as necessary from the public.
Thank you for your cooperation on this.

'. Steve, can you provide a quote to hire you and your equipment for a PA system on Mar. 22, 2021, 6
pm at OFC auditorium.
The purpose is to have a quality sound system during the town h�ill meeting and political forum
Microphones are needed for the mayor, 4 city council members, :1 for the audience, and 2 to split
between the 3 department heads and city attorney, they will be seated at tables.
The city administrator and city attorney will be giving presentations, then the audience will have a
time for questions and comments to the mayor, council & staff.
Once that portion of the meeting is over we will then go into a political forum for the 4 candidates
running in the special city election (the Mayor, Council, & staff will move from their seats), the same
microphones will be used.
There will also be a moderator.
We'd need one of your staff members to maintain the timer and 1turn the mics off when candidates
have a certain time limit to give an opening statement, respond ti� the audience questions, and then a
closing remark.
WOKC will be broadcasting the entire event so they will also neecl the ability to plug into your system
(they are also the ones who recommended we contact you as the PA system in the auditorium is very
old and there's only 2 mics).
We have a recording software program on a laptop that we'd need to also connect to the sound
system in order to capture the recording of the town hall meetin€; portion only (if this is possible).
The entire event should be no longer than 2 hours.
Let me know if there's anything else that you'd need to complete the quote. Thank You!!

Steve, can you provide a quote to hire you and your equipment for a PA system on Mar. 22, 2021, 6 pm at OFC
auditorium.
The purpose is to have a quality sound system during the town hall meeting and political forum
Microphones are needed for the mayor, 4 city council members, 1 for the audience, and 2 to split between the 3
department heads and city attorney, they will be seated at tables.
The city administrator and city attorney will be giving presentations, then the audience will have a time for questions
and comments to the mayor, council & staff.
' Once that portion of the meeting is over we will then go into a political forum for the 4 candidates running in the
special city election (the Mayor, Council, & staff will move from their seats), the same microphones will be used.
There will also be a moderator.
We'd need one of your staff members to maintain the timer and turn the mics off when candidates have a certain time
';, limit to give an opening statement, respond to the audience questions, and then a closing remark.
WOKC will be broadcasting the entire event so they will also need the ability to plug into your system (they are also the
ones who recommended we contact you as the PA system in the auditorium is very old and there's only 2 mics).
We have a recording software program on a laptop that we'd need to also connect to the sound system in order to
capture the recording of the town hall meeting portion only (if this is possible).
The entire event should be no longer than 2 hours.
Let me know if there's anything else that you'd need to complete the quote. Thank You!!

Glad to hear that they approved the cost. Of course it's ok to use our logo and I thank you for asking. You
might want to also mention on this flyer that people can also listen oriline at wokc.com and on our free app.
It can be downloaded from any android or smart phone by typing in v�rokcradioapp on google. After you add

How long do you think this will be? After reading your email it looks like it could be 2.5 hours, if so it will be
$250. Ken Keller and I would like to set up our equipment between 2-3pm that day. We will arrive at 5:30pm
so that we can meet with Steve to make sure we are synced up with Piis audio equipment. Who do I list as the

Subject: costs/information to live broadcast political forum
Importance: High
Billy, thank you so much for your help with this. I'm supposed to bring back to the City Council the
costs to host the live broadcast, and any other issues that need to be addressed.
The school board does have a PA system for the auditorium, all:hough they have a limited number of
microphones.
Please advise, what if any type of equipment would also be needed to be set up as we'd need to
coordinate with the school board staff.
The City is hosting its semi-annual Town Hall Meeting on Mar 22, 2021, 6 PM
At OFC Auditorium.
The Town Hall meeting will begin with a quick update on curren�t projects and developments within
the City from City Administrator Montes De Oca.
Then the City Attorney will provide a brief update on the citizen �Charter Review Advisory Committee's
progress on recommendations for amendments to the City Charter and the importance of the City
Charter.
Next will be a time for anyone in the audience to ask questions ��f the Mayor, Council and Department
Heads.
(this should all take approximately 30-minutes, but could take up to 1-hour based on audience
questions).
The second part of the Town Hall Meeting is to conduct a Candidate Forum for the City Special
Election (May 4, 2021).
There are 4 candidates running for one at-large city council mernber seat.
The layout is to provide each candidate a 3-5 min opening/introciuction statement; respond to
questions submitted by the audience, screened by a volunteer ��anel that's being created by the City
Administrator; and then a 2-3 minute closing statement.
The moderator has not been chosen at this time, the City Admir�istrator is working on that task.
(this should take approximately 1-hour to 1.5-hours, depenc�ing on the number of questions by
the audience).
Would it be easier to do the live broadcast for the entire meetinc� or just the candidate forum?
Can you provide costs breakdowns for both individually and all together?
If we only do the candidate forum, how much time would you need between the 2 portions of the
meeting to set up?
Am I forgetting anything to ask? Q

I'm gathering information to present to the Council so that they can decide whether or not to host the semi-annual

If you're not the correct person to respond to these questions, would you be so kind as to forward to the person who
would.
In the past this meeting has been held at the OFC Auditorium in the everiing during a weekday.

Can you tell me whether the school is allowing use of its facilities at this time?
If yes, are there any specific dates in March that would be best to schedule the community meeting (teacher work
' days, non-testing dates, etc).
If there are any new requirements due to COVID that the City would need to meet to have use of the facilities, please
add that information (other than the normal application and certificate of insurance).
Your assistance is greatly appreciated!
