Rochester Community Television (RCTV-15), Rochester's public access channel, is undergoing a major "face lift" as the Board and staff, along with the City Council, re-negotiate Time Warner's contract with the City. On Feb. 25, 2004, a panel consisting of Interim General Manager Carvin Eison, Vice President of Programs Ginna Moseson, and Programming Manager Rick Osborne, updated current RCTV producers on the changes that are occurring and/or are in the planning stage. The goal is to enable Rochester's public access programming to become more professional and to better serve the community. The contract negotiations process provides an excellent opportunity to ensure the availability of locally sponsored, locally centered programming that promotes a diversity of voices and the needs and interests of the community without concern for profit. <!--break--> <b><u>Body:</b></u> Rochester Community Television (RCTV channel 15) is undergoing a major "face lift," thanks to the efforts of Interim General Manager Carvin Eison, Vice President of Programs Ginna Moseson, Programming Manager Rick Osborne, and other members of the RCTV board and staff. <br><br> Eison, Moseson, and Osborne met last night with RCTV producers at RCTV headquarters in Rochester. <br><br> For the last three years, the City of Rochester has been in negotiation with Time-Warner (the current cable service provider in our area) for a new contract.
