Selectboard forms small committee to study hybrid meeting livestream options with GNAT
Summary
GNAT representatives presented a range of livestream/hybrid meeting options; the board appointed a small committee (Town Administrator Aileen Tulloch, James Ameden, Tom Cavanagh) to work with GNAT to recommend a system that meets open meeting requirements and community needs.
Tammie Reilly, GNAT Executive Director, described GNAT's distribution channels (cable, Roku, Apple FireTV and YouTube) and said GNAT has filmed town committee meetings since 2013. Reilly and GNAT staff outlined equipment and service options for hybrid meetings with estimated costs ranging from about $3,000 to $100,000 and recommended the town consult with nearby towns that operate hybrid meetings.
The Selectboard appointed a small committee—Aileen Tulloch, James Ameden, and Chair Tom Cavanagh—to gather input from town committees and work with GNAT on a long-term plan for hybrid meeting capability. GNAT staff present included video production manager Keegan Douglass and videographer Amanda Fouda.
