We began discussion on planning the 1st 2023 KPFK-LSB Town Hall event. Per the Pacifica Foundation Bylaws, two Town Halls are required annually. However, no specifics yet until current conflicts between the PNB and KPFK-LSB are resolved.
Some recent updates on Station matters were covered… Listen to audio recording.
All in attendance expressed their comments and great suggestions.
We reviewed some recent outreach efforts on 12/18/22, 2/11/23 and Sun., 2-26-23.
We discussed coordination of some virtual/electronic ideas to spread KPFK’s presence throughout the Station signal area moving forward…
These are adopted Projects:
Project 1:
LA County Public Libraries; create electronic flyer with KPFK 90.7 FM promotional highlights, including popular programs with brief description., to be posted at Library Bulletin Boards, Calendars, Newsletters, etc.
And to also, arrange participation at Library community events.
A task force members will outreach to the Public Libraries in their areas, with continued group updates of on-going progress, to streamline this effort..
Once this project is populated, we hope to branch out to colleges and private Libraries.
Project 2:
To coordinate with station GM, to promote a “Home Pet Video Station Project” ( a great family project), This would be promoted on-air for a submission opportunity from the listeners.
AND ASK that they post on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and TicTock.
The members vote their favorite. The top winners will have an audition to voice a cart for a KPFK station I.D. to one’s child/grandchild/young relative/young friend’s voice plus pet’s voice.

KPFK Self-promotion: when the best video is selected, it will bear a subliminal KPFK 90.7 FM logo with info placement on the video screen, to promote the station and encourage support.
Project 3:
To request KPFK’s IGM Michael Novick, to begin renting studio space and offer station facilities to amateur instrumentalists, choral groups, orchestral groups and music students; and to promote and aid other creative activities which will serve the cultural welfare of the community (Pacifica Mission Statement: https://www.pacifica.org/about_mission.php .
The Parking lot can also need to be used to engage with same purpose.
These efforts will provide rapid self-promotion and funding returns.
