Town Meetings Now Available On
Town of North Haven Website
NORTH HAVEN, (February 23, 2008) Through an agreement with the Town of North Haven, Town meetings taped by NHTV will now be available on the official Town of North Haven website, after they have aired on NHTV2 Government Television. "The catalog of Town meetings on the website has just recently started, and over time, should grow to a large archived offering of meetings available for the public to view," said Bill Bennett, the Data Manager for the Town of North Haven. NHTV Executive Director Walter Mann said that the station is happy to be able to work with the Town in offering this service to residents. "One of our primary goals has always been to be a tremendous service to the North Haven community, and this is exactly the type of thing we strive to accomplish," said Mann. "Once the meetings have had their initial run on NHTV, my feeling is that an archive for residents to refer to going forward, will be positively received," added Mann. When downloading the meetings from the Town website, having a broadband connection will help move the process more smoothly. To see the current catalog of available meetings, CLICK HERE.

HARTFORD, (May 7, 2008) Community access TV stations throughout Connecticut were disappointed Wednesday when House Bill 5814, which would have set protections for community access TV failed to be called. Hopefully next year, when the session begins again in Hartford, a new bill can become reality.
NHTV's local community channels ARE NOT available on any satellite broadcast service (such as DirecTV or DishNet) as satellite broadcast services are unwilling to carry local community access television channels. Currently, only subscribers of Comcast in North Haven can receive NHTV's local channels. Soon, subscribers of AT&T U-Verse will also receive NHTV.
