That’s right – you can watch Columbus Cable and Columbus School District’s channels online LIVE! From OUTSIDE City Hall, browse to the city website and click the “Videos” link on the left sidebar or browse to http://66.186.53.18:8086/CablecastPublicSite/. I’m still working on the internal connection within City Hall, so you’ll need to turn off Wi-Fi and access the link using cellular data for the moment. This is something that I’ve been working on requires collaboration with Ontech over the past month. I have to give Ryan Custer great credit for helping me bridge the gap between A/V and IT. I am confident that he will help us with a good internal connection as well. o The CP Holiday Train rolled in to town on December 3rd, and Columbus Cable was there to capture the fun. You can watch the recording on Columbus Cable (Spectrum channel 980), or online (see above). Many thanks to Zach Navin for lending the DPW pickup to film from, Chief Koehn and Chief Weiner for giving me a great spot to park, and many others. From a Tourism standpoint, the Holiday Train seemed to be a hit despite the event taking place on a Tuesday night. This year, Tourism Commission dropped some of the more traditional methods of advertising and spent less, but still achieved solid results. A good opportunity in the form of extra flyers from Capital Newspapers also came in, which were distributed to local businesses. A joint effort Facebook event with CDDC was also made, which achieved great results – see the statistics below for an indication. 476 replied as “Going” to the event; an additional 3.1 thousand marked “Interested”. o New Channel look! If you tune in to Columbus Cable on Spectrum, you may have noticed that the channel is looking more polished than before. That’s the new broadcast system at work! I’ve spent time learning all of the great features that our new Cablecast system has to offer and have been making some changes to the look of the channel. The community bulletin board (in between programming) now features a 3-day forecast and a feed from the News Flash section of the city website, as well as space for an alert ticker when needed and a large section of the screen devoted to City and community announcements. • New programming recorded in December: o Common Council/COW: 12/2, 12/10, 12/17 o Plan Commission: 12/19 o School Board: 12/9 o CP Holiday Train, 12/3 • December program submissions from public: o Columbus United Methodist Church services, 12/1, 12/8, 12/15, 12/22 o Zion Lutheran Church services, 12/1, 12/8, 12/15, 12/22 o Faith Lutheran Church services, 12/1, 12/8, 12/15, 12/22 • Cable/equipment issues: o I’m happy to report that the audio “challenges” have been worked through and we have clear-sounding audio both in Council Chambers and on Channel 980. Channel 981 has some remaining audio issues; suspected cause is the signal modulator. I will follow up with Steve Fraser of Spectrum to resolve this issue in the coming weeks. • Statistics for December: o Cable - streaming video plays: 271 ▪ 106 on phone, 65 desktop, 6 tablet, 0 TV app ▪ Top video: Holiday Train (44 views) o City of Columbus Facebook page – 1831 followers ▪ Maximum daily page reach for December: 1442 (12/11/19) ▪ Minimum daily page reach for December: 17 (12/28-29) ▪ AVERAGE daily page reach for December: 335.9 ▪ Maximum daily engagements for December: 383 (12/11/19) ▪ Minimum daily engagements for December: 0 (12/15/19) ▪ AVERAGE daily engagements for December: 43.4 o Visit Columbus, WI Facebook page – 108 followers ▪ Maximum daily page reach for December: 3907 (12/1/19) ▪ Minimum daily page reach for December: 0 (20 days) ▪ AVERAGE daily page reach for December: 292.8 ▪ Maximum daily engagements for December: 117 (12/1/19) ▪ Minimum daily engagements for December: 0 (24 days) ▪ AVERAGE daily engagements for December: 8 • Staff Time Break down for December: o Cable Programming: 54 hours (34%) o Cable Meetings: 23 hours (14%) o City website/social media: 51 hours (32%) o Tourism: 32 hours (20%) Columbus Area Senior Citizens Advisory Board Columbus Area Senior Center Minutes October 3, 2019 at 8:15 a.m. I.

Revised 2015-08-20 COW AGENDA ITEM # 12 CITY OF COLUMBUS FOR COW MEETING OF: JANUARY 21, 2020 FOR CITY COUNCIL MEETING OF: FEBUARY 4, 2020 REQUEST FROM/DEPARTMENT: INTERIM CITY ADMINISTRATOR AGENDA ITEM/REQUEST: REVIEW AND DISCUSS CAPITAL PROJECTS AMENDMENT *************************************************** DESCRIPTION AND SCOPE OF PROJECT/ITEM WITH KEY ISSUES NOTED: At the Council meeting of Dec. 10th the Council reviewed a report by the City Engineer for the Hibbard St Construction project. The Council has approved this project and a Task order to the City Engineer to prepare the design of the street and utilities which is now done. The Council plans to borrow to pay for this project. As requested, the City Engineer, at the meeting of Dec. 10th, also presented options for streets whose condition is such that a mill & overlay application may be appropriate at this point in time and could be added to the bid documents and included in the anticipated borrowing package. In addition, Dept. Heads and the Finance Director presented a list of other projects that may be included as well in said borrowing for 2020. After discussion I recommended further review of other sources of funding for Capital projects, if you have funds on hand, and you believe the project or projects should be done this year, they should be considered and applied before borrowing! Working with the Finance Director and Dept. Heads I’ve evaluated their priorities and have tried to take a balanced approach with limited funding options. I suggested in my reports that what the Council should consider is balancing priorities with funding in the form of an amendment to the 2020 Capital Projects budget. Attached is my report and recommendations. Refer to attached power point slides that I’m requesting an opportunity review with you at the meeting.
