Granicus webcasting solutions afford the public an intimate look into government agencies

Granicus webcasting solutions can benefit you. Local governmental agencies currently seem to be undergoing a period where there is a greater and greater level of public scrutiny, especially in the areas of the use of public funds, transportation decisions and environmental stewardship.  Citizens are ever more interested in how governments exercise their fiduciary duty, how they provide for public transit and how they do so in light of environmental concerns.  But not everyone can attend the weekly city council meeting or any of the many committee meetings where these decisions are made.  Enter Granicus webcasting solutions.  Citizens can now keep track of government decisions simply by making use of webcasting solutions like Granicus’ Media Manager.  It provides local government the ability to deliver public meetings, service announcements, education content and video training via webcasting solutions through the Internet, live or on-demand.
