As previously noted,the three-year contract is due to expire in May of <br /> this year. <br /> The merits of the program were considered. It was noted that Mashpee TV <br /> provides exceptional service transmitting school and public programming. <br /> However, there is little broadcast and programming on the government channel. <br /> Although one operation may be advantageous for the community, alternatives <br /> were considered to add in-house broadcasting and management as it relates to the <br /> operation of the Channel 18 program. <br /> Of particular concern is the lack of financial reporting. The Board of Selectmen <br /> has requested a full accounting of expenditures associated to the budget. <br />
