Dallas, Texas (March 9, 2017) – Swagit Productions, LLC is thrilled to announce that Missouri City, TX is streaming live high-definition video via Cosmos™ HD broadcast system and EASE™ solution in their council chambers. The live video streaming is available on Missouri City’s website for any interested party to watch City Council and Planning & Zoning meetings at their convenience.

Both the app and portal will help to further increased transparency and distribution channels – making it even easier for residents to view streaming content.
