Sec. B.201. Guidelines for Use of the Government Access Cable Channel, Web Stream, and Online Video Archives.
1)   The government access channel, web stream, and LFUCG internet video archives (all hereinafter referred to as "Lex TV Services") are available to all divisions of the urban county government and its satellite agencies. The priorities for programming will be first with the divisions of the urban county government followed by the satellite agencies and constitutional offices of Fayette County. Accommodations for programming and approval for services will be made by the video production supervisor.
2)   Meetings of the council held in the council chamber will be televised and web streamed simultaneously unless otherwise requested by the vice mayor or their designee.
3)   All televised/web streamed urban county government meetings will be broadcast in an impartial manner. All meetings will be covered in their entirety.
4)   Each council member will be allotted one program of up to fifteen minutes in length per month, disseminated on all Lex TV services. Multiple programs may be produced during a one-month period, but only one may be disseminated via Lex TV services during a thirty (30) day period. The thirty (30) day period begins when a new program is first disseminated via any Lex TV service. Any public rebuttal will be directed to the public access channel or the public comment portion of a council meeting.
5)   Each council member will be allotted one special program per calendar year. A special program is defined as a live or live-to-tape program or news conferences and is limited to a maximum of five (5) hours of set up and program time combined. Special programs may be at a remote location outside the government center. In order for a program to be televised and web streamed live, it must take place in a location with existing infrastructure allowing for a live telecast. Request for special programs will require a minimum of a thirty-day notice to the video production supervisor and will be honored based on availability of staff and equipment. If the special program takes place outside of normal business hours, program production availability may be subject to available overtime funds and availability of staff. The program may run periodically for up to ninety (90) days within a twelve (12) month period.
6)   Council members involved in a primary election or general election are prohibited thirty (30) days prior to the election from appearing on the Lex TV services in any way other than the participation in meetings of the council and urban county government news conferences. All existing videos on any online video archive services will remain public.
7)   Constitutional officers of Fayette County will be afforded time on the Lex TV services to fulfill their official duties. Requests for time on the Lex TV services will be honored at the approval of the video production supervisor and determined by the workload of the staff and availability of equipment. The administrative and legislative branches of the urban county government will have priority in the use of the Lex TV services. Elected constitutional officers are restricted from using the Lex TV services for a period of thirty (30) days prior to any primary election or general election with the exception of LFUCG emergency news conferences. All existing videos on any online video archive services will remain public.
8)   The mayor of the urban county government will be granted time on the Lex TV services as necessary to fulfill the duties of their office. Appearances on the Lex TV services other than in urban county government meetings or news conferences will be restricted for a period of thirty (30) days prior to a primary election or general election. All existing videos on any online video archive services will remain public.
9)   Regarding digital materials for council comment or reports during official meetings:
a.   All images must be sent to Lex TV three (3) hours prior to the start of the meeting.
b.   All materials must be numbered in the order the council member wishes to present them.
c.   All materials should be emailed to gtv3@lexingtonky.gov
10)   Lex TV does not loan out production equipment.
11)   These guidelines are subject to review and changes by request of the chief administrative officer and approval by the urban county council.
