Near the end of the meeting a prerecorded Simsbury Community Media message ran asking residents to donate as traditional subscription revenue declines and directing viewers to the SCM website or a QR code for contributions.
A recorded announcement from Simsbury Community Media (SCM) aired near the close of the Nov. 13 meeting asking for public support. SCM representatives said cord‑cutting has reduced subscription revenue that funds local programming and that donations will help maintain community broadcasts and archives.
The announcement highlighted SCM’s role in broadcasting town meetings, covering school events and preserving local history, and asked listeners to visit the SCM website or scan a posted QR code to donate. "Visit our website or scan the QR code on your screen to make your donation," the recording said.
Commissioners acknowledged the message during closing remarks; no formal action or vote followed the public announcement.
