Welcome to MACTA
The Minnesota Association of Community Telecommunications Administrators (MACTA) is a statewide professional organization of city representatives and staff, as well as a state chapter of NATOA. MACTA maintains a strong cohesive network which speaks, advocates, provides conferences and shares information with and for cities and their residents.

We work for our constituencies in the following areas:

  • The Regulation of Cable Television
  • Cities' "Rights-of-Way" Authority
  • The Administration of Cable Television Franchises
  • Advocacy & Voice of Cities for Improved Telecommunications at the State & Federal Level
  • Promote & Support Government Uses of Cable Television Including Community Programming

Do We Have Your Correct Information?
MACTAs primary communication tools with our members are the website and email.
