The Commission should also focus on reimbursing full-power television stations that incur expenses directly caused by the repack of another station. Now that the Commission has additional repack reimbursement funds available, the Commission must follow the requirements of the Spectrum Act and adopt rules to finally make broadcasters whole: all reasonable expenses incurred by full-power television broadcasters directly caused by the repack should be reimbursed.

  • 2021 FAQ WJCT Public Media Jags Parking & Tailgating
    2021 FAQ WJCT Public Media Jags Parking & Tailgating When can I have access to my parking space? The parking lot is open three hours prior to kick-off and will be staffed and secured by WJCT Public Media and JSO until 90 minutes after the end of the game. What does WJCT Public Media Parking NOT allow? At WJCT Public Media, we encourage a respectful, safe, and enjoyable tailgating experience. Any behaviors that impact the safety or experience of our clients are strongly discouraged. We ask that you and your guests keep the roadways clear, refrain from throwing footballs and other items, playing music or speaking though public address (PA) systems, using obscenities, burning open pit fires, setting off fireworks or incendiaries of any type, or soliciting donations of any kind. What WJCT Public Media Parking activities are allowed? Other than the aforementioned prohibitions, we encourage our clients to come down early and enjoy a true tailgating experience at WJCT. Grills, Satellite TV set-ups, and cornhole games are all familiar sights. As long as your setup is contained within your allotted space, doesn’t block roads or other spaces and doesn’t break any common sense rules, you’re good to go! Can I purchase parking at the gate? Parking, if available, may be purchased at the gate for WJCT Public Media events. The exceptions are when the season passes for Jags games are sold out and special events like the Florida/Georgia and Gator Bowl game, which are sold to the host committees in advance. We try to keep your informed ahead of time to purchase these events via email.
