The Spokane Regional Cable Advisory Board is a citizens' body, formed in the spirit of inter-local cooperation between the City of Spokane, Spokane County, and the City of Spokane Valley. The purpose is to insure representation of citizens and participating local governments in matters regarding cable franchises and cable communication issues, but limited to regulation of rates, applications for new franchises, transfers renewals of current franchises, and monitor franchise compliance audits.

Because of federal law that limits the authority of local governments' with regards to cable television rates, the Board is unable to change rates that are charged by the various cable TV operators.
