April 4th 2006, the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors voted 5-0 to
approve the extension of the Comcast franchise, and to allocate to MCTV an
amount equal to what County subscribers of Comcast will pay over the next 15
years in new surcharges under the franchise.  In addition, the Supervisors
voted to require an amendment to the Franchise side agreement to require
Comcast to comply with the terms of the MCTV Access Agreement already in
effect.  Before the Franchise extension is signed, Comcast must accept this new
language, and the President of the Board and County Counsel were designated to
finalize the language with Comcast.

These actions by the Board of Supervisors fulfill all the requests that MCTV
made to the Supervisors.  MCTV hopes that Comcast will quickly agree to the
amendment.  MCTV is very grateful to the Board of Supervisors for their strong
support of community access.   Equally important, MCTV would like to thank the
Mid-Coast Community Council, HMB City Council, and all the other public
agencies, MCTV members, sponsors and Coastside residents who wrote, or phoned,
or spoke in support of MCTV's position.  We know that this positive result
would not have been possible without such an outpouring of community support
and all of us at MCTV want to say thank you to everyone.

Thank you for your support. Very truly yours, Constance J. Malach, President, MCTV
MCTV and its Board of Directors, Staff and Viewers Thank You for Your Support!
