RESOLUTION NOS. 17,18 & 19 APPEARS ON PAGE OF ORDINANCE AND RESOLUTION BOOK WARNER CABLE FRANCHISE The Mayor introduced a report from the City Manager regarding an action plan for moving forward on consideration of a proposed cable franchise ordinance; postponed indefinitely at the January 17 Board meeting. City Manager Pennington said the staff developed a plan, should the City wish to proceed to build a City -owned cable system. He said this would not eliminate the idea of looking for another cable company. He said the plan consisted of three recommendations: 1. Retain the services of an experienced cable consulting firm. The firm would be required to review the market feasibility, estimated cost of construction including head ends, cable amplifiers, line relocation, pole rental, underground cabling and yard restoration, personnel and operating costs, • etc., as well as a time frame in which this could be accomplished. The firm should be familiar with both the legal and technical aspects of cable television. Pennington estimated a cost ranging from $30,000 to $50,000. He added that a preliminary review could cost from $5,000 to $12,000. 55.2 55.3 55.4 As soon as possible after reaching the decision, form a Cable , 55.5 Television Commission as required by statute with regard to the existing franchise holder. 3. It would not be cost effective to establish a "hot-line" for cable complaints to monitor Warner Cable over the remaining life of Warner's existing franchise, as suggested by some Board members. Instead, we should announce clearly through public service announcements and newspaper ads that concerns or legitimate and provable complaints should be put in writing and directed to the City Manager. Forms should be developed, clearly advertised and made available in the community, which would be used for citizen comments. These will be included in a cable review file. These written documents would of legal necessity, have to be specific in nature rather than general. It should be noted that this item could be used as .a monitor to determine compliance with not only the existing, but any new franchise if one is issued now or in the future. Pennington said a letter was sent to the City from Warner Cable and has been transmitted to the City Board, regarding some possible changes in the language of the proposed franchise. He said the changes dealt with the time frame when the franchise would go -into effect. He said the letter, dated February 13, indicates 55.6 55.7 55.8
