About Somerville Television

 

Our History
Somerville Television is the local cable television station serving the Somerville, N.J. community. We are a completely volunteer organization broadcasting educational and governmental programs on Cablevision, Channel 15 in Somerville and Verizon, Channel 30 in the surrounding area. Our first day of broadcasting was on October 18, 2004. Almost three (3) years later on October l, 2007, Somerville Television became the first local access station in New Jersey to broadcast on Verizon’s FiOS. In 2008, we began streaming VILLEtv programming on line.

Mission
The Borough of Somerville, in cooperation with community and area resources, including local schools, will operate an education and government cable channel which will feature programming designed to celebrate the diversity of its residents and inform and educate them on topics of local interest in order to help them identify and bond with the community, its governing institutions and each other.
