City Connection: Santa Barbara City’s New Video Series

By the City of Santa Barbara

With a continued focus on improving communication, prioritizing transparency, and modernizing its approach to connecting and relaying information, the City has launched a new, social-media friendly video series called “City Connection.” 

Produced by the City’s video production department, CityTV, the new video series is a quick, fresh look at what’s happening in the City. The goal is to produce this fast-paced, news-format show with a host, on a frequent basis. This new format will replace the news-magazine style show, “Inside Santa Barbara.”

Over the summer the City launched a redesigned website with a modern look that focuses on inclusivity, accessibility and searchability, to reach an even broader community audience. “City Connection” is an exciting complement to that effort.

Through CityTV, the City’s mission has always been to provide greater government accessibility by producing and distributing information about its services, policies, programs, resources, and events, via cable television and the Internet, to Santa Barbara residents. With “City Connection,” City staff is able to lean in and utilize social media and cable television to keep the community informed and connected in a refreshed and modern way.

  1. You are constantly making this false claim and whining about government spending. It’s the government’s money not yours or anyone else’s. Honestly, I hope we return to the 1940-1960 tax rate of 91%.
    Did you know that the government funded the research that ultimately resulted in the development of the internet? Most of the tiny components in your phone were developed by the government for military use.
    It’s funny, the people who whine and moan about taxes most are usually rich people who would be plundered instantly if they didn’t have the government protecting their property.

  2. stupid and tiresome lies. Schneider hasn’t been mayor for years, has no connection to the city, nominated one person–who was not an “elite”–who was confirmed by Clark’s executors in New York. Have you ever been to a country club? Bellosguardo is anything but–it’s a decrepit shell that belongs to a private foundation, so it’s none of our business. SB’s elites have their own mansions and belong to actual country clubs. And they have nothing to do with this video and the working stiffs who put it together and are featured in it.

  3. “It’s the government’s money not yours or anyone else’s.”
    I disagree with this. As Abe said, we–by virtue of our democratic vote–have a government of, by, and for the people. Taxes are the dues we pay to be part of civilized society, and the spending of those dues is managed by smart experienced people, sometimes former businessmen like Randy Rowse whom so many people here voted for. I’m not personally a great fan of his, but I would so much rather have him making these decisions than an incompetent ignorant BasicIdiot.
