AGENDA ITEM 3C <br />STAFF MEMBER Daniel Tesch, Director of Administration <br />DATE 21 September 1999 <br />SUBJECT Resolution extending the cable television franchise <br />VOTE REQUIRED Simple Majority <br />BACKGROUND <br />Negotiations are underway between the North Metro Telecommunication Commission <br />and MediaOne for renewal of the existing cable television franchise. Although progress is being <br />made, it is apparent that the terms of a renewal franchise ordinance will not be agreed upon and <br />adopted by 1 October 1999. In order to preserve our rights under the existing franchise and to <br />provide enough time to negotiate a renewal ordinance, it will be necessary to extend the <br />agreement through 18 February 1999. Approval of Resolution 99 -95 will provide the necessary <br />extension. <br />OPTIONS <br />1. Approve the extension of the cable television franchise to 18 February 2000. <br />2. Deny the extension. <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />1 Approve the extension of the cable television franchise to 18 February 2000. <br />
