Welcome to Town Meeting TV

Welcome to Town Meeting TV!
In this atmosphere of media consolidation and corporate media control, Town Meeting TV remains a truly local channel. Since 1990, Town Meeting TV has served the communities of Burlington, South Burlington, Essex, Essex Junction, Williston, Winooski, and Colchester. With more than 100 hours of new programs each month, viewers rely on Town Meeting TV for election results, gavel-to-gavel coverage of meetings, community events, press conferences, legislative hearings and live public affairs shows on a variety of topics. Our Weekly Newsletters offer interesting highlights and links to new programs.

Town Meeting TV serves more than 25,000 households in Chittenden County, Vermont and serves cable subscribers of both Burlington Telecom and Comcast Cable. The channel is overseen by the Town Meeting TV Board of Trustees -- made up of elected and appointed officials from the member communities. The Trustees contract with CCTV's Center for Media & Democracy to operate all aspects of channel operations. Town Meeting TV is one of two community access channels in the Chittenden County cable service area (along with the Media Factory, formerly VCAM and RETN).

Town Meeting TV's mission is to be a community supported and sought after multimedia resource that engages citizens in local government. Watch Burlington Meetings LIVE on Burlington Telecom's Channel 317. And of course, watch Town Meeting TV programs on Comcast 1087, BT 17 and 217, on this website and our YouTube channel.
