RE: Cancellation of November meeting
CANCELLATION
— The City of Reno's Citizens Cable Compliance Committee
monthly meeting scheduled for 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 18, at
Reno City Hall, has been canceled due to the illness of one member,
time conflicts of others, and the fact that we remain a member
short. Any Reno resident wishing to serve may contact City Clerk
Lynnette Jones at
(775) 334-2030 for an application, or go to the city's
website.
We will
next meet on Tuesday, Dec. 16, at 6:30 p.m. in the council chambers
at Reno City Hall. It will be cablecast live on
SNCAT/Charter Cable Channel 13 in Reno-Sparks. The November
agenda will carry over to December with some potential additions
as indicated, below, and undoubtedly others by showtime.
My personal
apologies for any inconvenience this last-minute notice may cause.
