Seconded by Commissioner Bauman. Unanimous ayes, motion carried.
b. Bookkeeping Update —Chrissie Estrada gave an overview of transitioning from
Wells Fargo to Mid Country Bank, a local bank. There was discussion on
whether the finances should remain and be processed with City of Buffalo.
There was some concern because they would need a new software system.
It was mentioned that BBC Consultants in Elk River would be an option for
managing funds and streamlining the process. Currently, there are some bills
that go to Bill Bruce and Some that are sent to City of Buffalo.
Bill Bruce noted that he will work with City of Buffalo on developing a process
for paying bills and other finance related items. Chrissie Estrade commented
that she can check references of the consultant noted above and conduct a
background check.
There was also discussion on having a second city and the hired accountant as
a signer of payments to avoid any delays.
Commissioner Wolbeck made a motion to direct City of Buffalo to check
references for BBC Consultants, and if there are no issues, authorize Tina
Allard to sign an agreement with BBC Consultants, and also to add Jennifer
Schreiber as a second reviewer of payments. Seconded by Commissioner
Boese. Unanimous ayes, motion carried.
4. Attornev's Report
Bob Vose, Buffalo City Attorney, gave an update on cable companies related to
renewing franchise agreements and enforcement. There is little excitement or worry
around these agreements because there are so many ways to get information.
It was noted that contact with Charter Communications has basically disappeared and
isn't active in Minnesota. Bill Bruce added that he has lost communication with Charter
and that it appears there are no Charter representatives available across the state. This
item was for informational purposes and no action was taken.
5. Equipment Report
Bill Bruce provided the equipment report dated December 2023. Some of the
highlights of the report:
• Review of summer parades.
• Elk River hosted a movie in the parking lot.
• Rocktoberfest in Rockford was a success
• All cable converter boxes will be replaced.
• Many locations received installs/upgrades:
- Big Lake Police Department
- Monticello Community Center
- New Elk River Council Chambers Audio Equipment
• Dassel is in need of live streaming. This can be provided by a Leightronix
InCodeX Vier live streaming appliance. Approval was requested for this
item.
Commissioner Wohlbeck made a motion to approve a Leightronix InCode
X Vier Live Stream appliance for the City of Dassel at a cost of $4,495.
Seconded by Commissioner Boese. Unanimous ayes, motion carried.
• Elk River is currently in process of an installation of a Leightronix
ipMergeNX in Elk River. Once installed in Elk River, there will be one
installed in Buffalo and SWTV. The City of Monticello has requested that
they get an update following Buffalo and SWTV. Approval was requested
for this item.
Commissioner Boese made a motion to approve a Leightronix ipMergeNX for
the City of Monticello plus training for a onetime equipment cost of $23,825.
Seconded by Commissioner Wohlbeck. Unanimous ayes, motion carried.
6. Personnel Committee
Bill Bruce gave an update regarding the contract with Jackson Groskreutz which was
amended in May. He noted that things are going well since he transitioned to a
contract position from an employee.
In partnership with Terri Boese, Bill Bruce created a list of basic events taking place in
2024. The commission was instructed to send any events to them. Tina Allard will
work on a contract for Jackson, with Bill's assistance. It was stated that it is difficult
when there are unknowns as to how many events there are.
There was discussion about having a set amount of events for each city. Anything
additional would incur a fee.
8. Other Business

December 2024
Maple Lake St. Patrick's Day Parade & Coronation
Parades & Coronations
We always start the year of our parade coverage in Maple Lake at the St. Patrick's Day Parade.
Whether it's cold or snowing doesn't matter to anybody because everyone knows when you wear
green on this magical day it warms you up.
There is always a very large turnout in Maple Lake.
The summer parade season kicked off in Buffalo. Laureen Bodin volunteered again to announce
the Buffalo parade. Sherburne County Commissioner and former Big Lake Mayor Raeanne
Danielowski announced the Big Lake parade. Delano's parade started with us watching the
weather. A rainstorm moved in right before the start but we are always prepared and have tents
and canopies setup to protect the talent and equipment. We covered every parade this year except
the one in Elk River.

Delano Mock Car Crash
Meghan & Jackson produced a very nice video for the Delano Mock Car Crash. They received
lots of cooperation from the Wright County Sheriff and pulled out all the stops to produce a
riveting video. This year they focused on edibles and timed it with the Delano school district so
the students saw it before prom. I especially like the drone tracking shot of the Sheriffs vehicle.
Movie in the Park
Our Movie in the Park program continues to be popular. I've included in the packet a Movie in
the Park Information & Guideline sheet. I put it together to make it easier for the member
cities to have this information available for staff while they are planning these events. Please
pass this on to your appropriate staff members.
Big Lake Movie Promo
During the setup for one of the Big Lake movies, footage was shot for future use in advertising.
Big Lake has found that they get a higher turnout by promoting the events in advance.
Monticello Chalk Fest
We setup time lapse cameras in multiple locations to capture the artists creating their chalk
drawings. This footage is being added to video that Meghan & Jackson shot to create a video
overview of the event.
Monticello Chalk Fest
Montipalooza and Rocktoberfest Music Festivals
On October 5th we covered simultaneous music festivals in both Monticello and Rockford.
We moved our white production trailer to Rockford and used the black movie trailer to create a
temporary control room for use in Monticello.
We had to get creative in order to cover both events. I helped Meghan & Jackson setup in
Monticello and then went to Rockford to direct that event. We each used a few freelance crew
members plus worked on setup the day before in order to prepare for each event.
Both cities did a wonderful job organizing the event and always treat us well. It's a lot of work
setting up and covering the events but we really enjoy doing it. The public loves the events and
both had very good turnouts. Here are the posters and some photos from the festivals.

Elk River Furniture & Things Center Upgrades
We recently assisted Elk River with upgrading their Overlook Meeting room. This room
"overlooks' one of the ice arena rinks as well as the parking area. They added food and
refreshment facilities, special seating and TV monitors to enhance the ice arena experience.
We designed a special matrix switcher to allow people using the room to see video and audio
feeds from events in the arena, events from the school district sports facility as well as cable TV
and streaming feeds.
We also attended the ribbon cutting ceremony with the chamber during the grand opening.

Upcoming Projects
Buffalo Community Center
The City of Buffalo purchased the Penrad building which is located off of Hwy 25 across from
the hospital. We will be helping them relocate meeting room audio and video equipment from
the current facility to the new one.
Channel Playback Equipment Upgrade Status
We have had the new playback equipment running in Elk River since late summer. It's been
working very well. Elk River production staff likes working with it and it has greatly improved
playback resolution on both the cable channel and live streaming.
We are currently working on programming the new equipment for Monticello, Buffalo and
SWTV. We plan to have it installed and staff trained by the beginning of March.
The next cities that I'd recommend we upgrade are Big Lake and Delano. They both need to have
upgrades soon. We have had to replace parts in both cities to keep their playback running.
I discussed this with Taylor, our commission Treasurer. My recommendation is after the
upgrades are completed in Monticello, Buffalo and SWTV that we purchase the equipment for
Delano and Big Lake.
Action Requested: Approve the purchase of a Leightronix ipMergeNX for the City of Delano
and the City of Big Lake for a onetime equipment cost of $13,825.00 each. Total $27,650.00

RE: 2025 Rates for Legal Services
Dear Sherburne Wright Counties Cable Communications Commission:
I am writing to thank you for allowing me the opportunity to serve as legal counsel for the Sherburne Wright
Counties Cable Communications Commission and in reference to proposed rates for legal services starting
March 1, 2025.
Starting March 1, 2025, I propose that the legal rate for the Sherburne Wright Counties Cable
Communications Commission would be S194 per hour. Because total legal fees in a given year are driven
by hours of work more than the hourly rate, I do not anticipate that this rate letter requires any change in
Sherburne Wright Counties Cable Communications Commission's legal fee budget.
I have thoroughly enjoyed both being involved in the growth and development of the Sherburne Wright
Counties Cable Communications Commission and working with the Board members and staff members.
Thank you once again for allowing me to continue to serve the Sherburne Wright Counties Cable
Communications Commission as legal counsel.
Sincerely,
KENNEDY & GRAVEN, CHARTERED

Movies in the Park
Reservation Information
1) We have a calendar for reserving the Movies in the Park projection system. Each year the
commission has cities pick dates at its last meeting of the year for the following year. If you are
trying to schedule a movie after the dates have already been picked ask Bill or Jackson for open
dates. The commission has limited each city to holding up to 3 movies per calendar year.
2) There are 3 types of movies we can do.
A) In the Park - which is where people sit outside on chairs and blankets
B) Drive In style - where people sit in their car and listen on their car radios.
C) Indoor - where we setup a smaller screen inside a gym or other facility.
3) Remember that it needs to be dark for the projector to display properly. Images will not
show up very well until 30 minutes after sunset. (dusk) On the longest day of the year (June 21 st
movies can typically start around 9:30pm. During the spring and fall movies can start as early as
8:15pm. Here is a link to a sunset calendar.
htty://www.sunrisesunset.com/custom srss calendar asn
4) The site needs to have AC power available to plug in the screen and projector and lights for
teardown. A baseball field with lights and AC power would be a good venue. You should have 2
-120v 20amp circuits available that are not powering anything else. Please make sure if we setup
on a field with sprinklers that they are turned off!
5) The screen is very big! 17' tall x 30' wide! You will need to provide a secure area and staff
so that children and adults do not go near the screen. This area should be cordoned off. The
screen should not be located next to parking lot exits, active roadways or any area where people
need to pass near it.
6) The manufacturer recommends that the screen be deflated if the winds are over 22 miles
per hour. If there is rain, the projector cannot be used. I would recommend that you schedule an
alternate rain date.
7) You are responsible for obtaining movies. They should be in Bluray, DVD, or movies on
files. You must obtain clearance to play any commercial movie even if there is no admission
charged. Please check the following links for movie rental and clearance. Check the internet for
other sources. hqp://www.criterionpicusa.com/ http://www.swank.com/ Many cities get
sponsors to pay for the movie. We can put their logo and company information on the screen
before the movie if you give us 2 weeks advance notice. They can also introduce the movie and
tell the audience about their business or organization before the movie starts. Many organizations
also sell concessions and/or have prize drawings. Some have handed out glow bracelets or
pamphlets about their business.
8) Site selection is very important! The best site is a ball field with bleachers to allow
placement of the screen in the outfield. The screen is held down with 4 foot stakes. You should
have the area flagged for- utilities before the event. Stay clear of trees, lamp posts or anything
else that may obstruct the movie projection or audience sight lines. Sites should have ample
space and be free of ambient lighting. The screen uses a blower that is fairly loud and the P.A
system needs to be turned up for the audience to hear. Proximity to residential areas and the
potential for noise complaints should be taken into consideration as most movies last around 2
hours and will run fairly late into the evening.
It is also important to choose a venue that has ample parking and restroom facilities.
The screen can also be setup on the street. Since we can't use the stakes to attach it to the ground
we need 4 small vehicles like ATVs. Some cities have held movies on main street to support the
local business community. Then each business sponsors the movie and has booths. Some cities
have food trucks as well. If you setup in the street make sure that the streetlights near the screen
can be turned off.
Please make sure if we setup on a field with sprinklers that they are turned off!
The screen can be setup inside some gyms if there is adequate space and a place to tie to on the
ceiling. If you are considering this please contact us first. We have a smaller screen that can be
used in small conference rooms.
9) The physical area that the screen and projector require for setup is 120 feet deep by 120 feet
wide. There should be no overhead wires anywhere near the area. This area does not include any
audience seating! The area should be cordoned off.
10) For Drive In movies we need a large parking lot or field that cars can drive on. We usually
have you stagger each row so that cars don't park directly behind each other. Cities use chalk
paint to mark off parking rows and spots and have staff available with vests and flashlights to
direct cars on where to park.
It's best to park large vehicles and trucks in the back rows so they don't block smaller vehicles.
Many trucks park backwards and sit in the bed. Cars with hatchbacks do this as well.
We run a sign on the screen telling drivers the correct FM station to tune into to hear the movie.
The broadcast is in FM stereo and it's a very good audio signal.
11) You need to supply at least 4 public/parks works employees, or 6-8 volunteers to
assist the commission in setting up and tearing down the screen. It weighs 350 pounds before
inflation and requires a person on each corner during inflation/deflation.
l 2) We will need to start setup about 4 hours before the event and any public arrives. Tear down
can happen right after the event is over as long as people are clear of the area.
13) We have a wireless mic available to make announcements etc. with.
14) There are many promotions and events you can hold around the movie screening. I have
attached a poster from a previous movie in Big Lake at the bottom of these guidelines. They do a
very good job of advertising which has resulted in large turnouts for their movies. They hold the
commission record for a Movie in the Park at a 1000 people. Elk River had the largest Drive In
Movie turnout at over 100 vehicles.
During the school year some cities have students take home flyers. Other cities put the movie
dates on their outdoor message boards. Most cities post it on their Facebook page and also post
weather cancellations there as well.
Maple Lake has gotten local business to donate prizes and they hold a drawing before the movie
starts. Monticello held a movie in a parking lot with area businesses surrounding it with food
trucks and booths. Many cities have their royalty there to meet the children. Cokato Royalty does
face painting for the kids while the Cokato Fire Department hands out free hot dogs.
Buffalo had local musicians play before one of their movies. Monticello had Ghostbusters
Cosplay performers drive up in their Ghostbusters car before a screening of Ghostbusters the
movie.
