Mark Rumley has an obligation to this community to get to the bottom of the financial improprieties at Medford Community Cablevision, Inc., or Rumley risks being labeled every bit as dishonest as Ronald DeLucia, Harvey Alberg, Art DeLuca and Francis R. Pilleri Jr.
-
Medford city officials continue to ask questions over TV3 - why have Nell Escobar Coakley and Alex Ruppenthal let this huge story languish?
- While
TV3 continues the process of dissolving, the Medford City Council is
demanding more information about the station and making suggestions
about the future of access television in Medford.
Lungo-Koehn also asked if the city
could be liable for TV3 allegedly breaking the lease at its former 5
High St. studio when it moved to 32 Riverside Ave. last April.
Rumley
responded the city has no liability in that matter. He told the council
an inventory list and photographs were taken of TV3’s equipment, which
the city will soon move into storage.
After
Medford Community Cablevision dissolves, the city of Medford will take
control of any leftover assets and place them in an escrow account to be
used for the sole purpose of access television in the future.
Marks
asked if cable subscribers could get a refund on their cable bills for
the time TV3 has been off the air since the end of March. Rumley
answered subscribers could be eligible for a refund on those cable bill
fees.
With the absence of TV3, the mayor
announced Jack Dempsey from Medford’s educational access channel would
be available to video tape any city candidates looking to get their
message out to voters.
He said those messages would air on the educational Channel 15 ahead of the Nov. 5 election.
