From the meeting

The board approved Independence Television's 2026/2027 budget at its April 22, 2026 meeting and reviewed activity from May through October 2026 in the November packet. The budget kept lease payments at $218,000 and increased other purchased services because of high-definition streams on the website. It also identified future capital improvement project work for additional mirrorless cameras and noted 2026 and 2027 franchise renewals with Direct TV and Comcast.

The packet shows the 2026/2027 budget was approved and the franchise renewals were still ahead.
