About FCTV

Fremont Community Television (FCTV) Channels 22 and 8; which serves Comcast subscribers in Fremont; is on the air.  Fremont resident and volunteer Bruce White began in the summer of 2014 with a community bulletin board. He then added local programs by recording concerts, parades, and other events during the Town's 250th Anniversary celebration.  With the support of Fremont Town Administrator Heidi Carlson and some technical help from Raymond Community Television Coordinator Kevin Woods, White approached the Fremont Select Board with a plan to re-organize the community cable access channel. They approved a plan to use funds in the Cable TV Revolving Fund to upgrade the master control playback system, provide the Town with a digital camera/recorder and purchase equipment to allow live and recorded meetings from the Town Hall basement meeting room.

On Thursday night February 12, 2015 FCTV broadcast its first Board of Selectmen's meeting live. With three robotically controlled cameras and four microphones everyone could be seen and heard clearly. According to Town Administrator Heidi Carlson, "This is the first step in bringing town government out to the residents of Fremont.  It will provide a way for voters to be more aware of what is happening in their town".  The group has since adopted the FCTV Policy Manual, and is working on updates as of 2025.  

"Access television is the soapbox of this millennium" says Woods, "It is a way for residents to show off the great things happening in their community and schools, express their opinions, and see what their government officials are discussing".  The FCTV Committee now meets every other month and staff members record and broadcast all Town and School District public meetings and many events.
