DISCUSSION OF "CITY BEAT" OPTIONS A. Contest for Selection of Name for Program Deliberations were made on whether or not to go through with a contest to select a name for Lynwood television program. Chairperson Mary Wright commented that since the school children are involved, clearance needs to be requested from the school board and this will take time. Since the board at one time has made a list of names to choose from, she suggested that the board select "Lynwood Showcase" as the name for the program. Mr. Forde also expressed that his main concern is the limited time allowed to set the contest in motion, and advised to forego the contest. Board members Bill Cunningham and C.C. Coleman moved that the board not hold a contest but instead, select "Lynwood Showcase" as the name for the program. Motion carried. B. Showcase Program Format Chairperson Mary Wright had a conversation with John Clodfelter of Continental Cablevision and the latter suggested that the board members do a rough draft of the script and Mr. Clodfelter will help out with the outline. Mr. Forde suggested that the board select a producer to work with Mr. Clodfelter. The board agreed and expressed a preference to have staff inember take the role and be responsible for script writing. The board will remain as the executive producer and members will give their input to the producer. � � Two names were mentioned during the discussion: -Mr. Perry Brent from Recreation and Parks who has worked with the Cablevision in taping the Gang Video and -Mr. Gene Harris, the individual who sent his proposal to the board on "Exclusively Lynwood Television." The Board will consider both individuals so long as they are willing to volunteer their services and the board delegated Mr. Forde to take charge of sending letters inviting them to be a part of the program. Mr. Forde suggested that the board set a subcommittee to work on the recommendations for the program. Chairperson Mary Wright and Board Member Ada Mc2ea1 volunteered to be subcommittee members. The first order of business is to have a meeting with Mr. Harris to go over the proposal he sent and to further discuss ideas he has in mind. C. Review of Program Subjects Submitted by Members Mr. Forde presented board member Ann Fields' ideas for the program in her absence. Ms. Eields suggested a video that will reflect an insight on families of various cultures. This video will feature: 1) How the family migrated to the States, the church they belong to, and their background 2) Way of cooking different ethnic food, etc. The board feels that since the subject matter is one that is more inclined to topics being discussed at the Ad Hoc Race Relations Committee, it would be a good idea to work with the said committee on this project. Board Member Ada McZeal added that cultural standpoint rather than involvement of personal lives be taken into account. 2. REVIEW OF PROPOSAL FROM GENE HARRIS The board reviewed the proposal of Gene Harris and decided to have Mr. Harris expound on his proposal at length during a subcommittee meeting that is to be set by Chairperson Mary Wriqht and Board Member Ada McZeal. 3. PUBLIC ORALS: Ms. Melanie Aarris urged the board to give Mr. Gene Harris' proposal a serious consideration. She expressed that the proposal is a well rounded document that will help the city � � generate funds. Chairperson Wright indicated that the board is not turning down Mr. Harris' proposal, but that it would like to further explore the proposal with Mr. Harris. 4. Mr. Forde announced the following: December 7, 1989 - Annual Commissioners' Dinner November 30, 1989- Chamber Mixer for Councilman E.L. Morris Meeting adjourned at 6:10 p.m.
