What this office does

City communications, media relations, the Burbank Channel

If you have read a City of Burbank news release, watched a Council meeting from your couch, or seen the City post about a street closure, this is the office that did it. It is led by Jonathan Jones, the City's Communications Manager.

Three jobs, really: get City news out, answer the press, and run the government access channel. It is meant to be the first place you look for what the City is actually saying — not the tenth.

The Burbank Channel

Burbank's government access channel

Where to watch
Spectrum channel 6 in Burbank, channel 16 in Glendale · AT&T U-verse channel 99 · streaming 24/7 on the City's site · YouTube @TheBurbankChannel

What it carries
City Council, Planning Commission, Police Commission, Parks and Recreation Board, the School Board, and the Infrastructure Oversight Board — plus programming about city services and the people who use them.

Want to speak at a meeting?
Call (818) 238-3335 during a live City Council meeting. When the Mayor opens public comment, press *9 to raise your hand, then *6 to unmute when the Clerk reads the last four digits of your number. You can also comment in person, by Zoom or by eComment: how to take part.
