Closed captioning available on cablecasts, webcasts of Fort Worth City
\nCouncil, Pre-Council meetings<\/strong><\/p>\n

Closed captioning is now available on cablecasts and webcasts of Fort
\nWorth City Council and Pre-Council meetings, another step toward ensuring
\nequal access to municipal communications.<\/p>\n

Here’s how it works:<\/p>\n

Webcast At FortWorthGov.Granicus.org viewers can see live and recorded
\nwebcasts of Council meetings. A small button with the closed-captioning logo
\nappears in the bottom left corner of the window. When this button is
\nclicked, a text box opens below the video to display captioning. This text
\nbox does not obstruct the video. Please note that closed captioning is
\navailable on webcasts and recordings of Council meetings beginning September
\n14, 2010.<\/p>\n

Cablecast Closed captioning is typically displayed at the bottom of the TV
\nscreen and becomes visible when the user activates the closed-captioning
\ndecoder, available in all TV sets manufactured after 1993. For TVs
\nmanufactured before 1993, a stand-alone decoder can be purchased. Please
\nnote that Council and Pre-Council meetings are cablecast live and
\nare periodically replayed on the City Municipal Channel, which is available
\nin certain packages offered by these providers: AT&T (Uverse), Charter, One
\nSource and Verizon.<\/p>\n

In 2009, the Fort Worth Human Relations Commission (HRC) recommended that
\nthe city website be made accessible to the deaf and hard of hearing
\ncommunity by including closed captioning for the website videos and by
\nproviding American Sign Language (ASL) services online. On Feb. 3, 2009, the
\nCity Council adopted a resolution accepting the HRC recommendation.<\/p>\n
