Why is educational fund money being used for this? How does this benefit education?
Per the FCC website:
“Pursuant to Section 611 of the Communications Act, local franchising authorities may require cable operators to set aside channels for public, educational, or governmental (“PEG”) use.
Public access channels are available for use by the general public. They are usually administered either by the cable operator or by a third party designated by the franchising authority.
Educational access channels are used by educational institutions for educational programming. Time on these channels is typically allocated among local schools, colleges and universities by either the franchising authority or the cable operator.
Governmental access channels are used for programming by local governments. In most jurisdictions, the local governments directly controls these channels.”
In other words: a larger facility for SCVTV could provide more opportunities for students to get some exposure/experience in a television studio.
Sounds like too much money from funds that would be better spent on education. The Station can rent space that isn’t on the Main Street. If they need my help, I’ll find a empty store front in a strip maul cheap. They don’t need to own it to broadcast from it.

Why would anyone use a building for a studio next to the train tracks? plain dumb! Oh wait, government at work for us…..Someone let the genius bar know we have several real studio buildings within the SCV that would be suited. Unless it’s just a power grab to keep dumping more money into the craphole area of town?
And everything else. It’s a good place for a Starbucks
