About Metro Cable

“Bringing Government Closer to the People”


On behalf of the participating seven member jurisdictions, the Sacramento Metropolitan Cable Television Commission operates a local government affairs channel, Metro Cable 14. Metro Cable 14 seeks to inform, entertain and educate the public by broadcasting the government meetings that affect their communities.

Meeting Coverage Procedures

Local government meetings are covered gavel-to-gavel (beginning to end) with no editing. Each meeting is cablecast at least twice. Some meetings are covered live with additional tape-delayed playback(s), while others receive tape-delayed playback only.

All of the meetings are closed-captioned, with the exception of Sacramento City Unified School District and Sacramento Metropolitan Fire District.

Metro Cable does not provide dubbing services, nor does it archive or serve as an official meeting record keeper. For official records, contact the Clerk of the respective agency.
