Council Meeting <br /> February 13, 1990 <br /> page 9 <br /> 1 Larry Hamer, Director of Public Works, is presently checking on this <br /> 2 matter as there have been complaints. A violater is sent two letters <br /> 3 advising him of his non-compliance with the ordinance before a citation <br /> 4 is issued. Hamer is trying to have personal contact with t-he violater <br /> 5 before citations are written. <br /> 6 <br /> 7 The City Manager was requested to have Hamer speed up his monitoring of <br /> 8 this situation by driving the streets in the City and identifying the <br /> 9 violaters. <br /> 10 <br /> 11 Dennis Cavanaugh advised the Council he was told he must -supply postage <br /> 12 and a self-addressed envelope in order to receive copies of minutes and <br /> 13 agendas. He noted that this type of mailing would probably require 45C <br /> 14 worth of postage. He requested the Council review the process as he <br /> 15 would prefer to pay up-front for these charges. <br /> 16 <br /> 17 Mr. Cavanaugh also noted he has written a letter regarding the establish- <br /> 18 ment of a Cable Commission. He felt cable television could be used for <br /> 19 a host of activities not just for agendas. <br /> 20 <br /> 21 Mayor Pro-tem Ranallo stated the Council would like to have all of the <br /> • 22 costs associated with increased use of the cable television before any <br /> 23 decisions are made for expanding its use. <br /> 24 <br /> 25 The City Manager noted that approximately 5% or 58 people would be watching the <br /> 26 government access channel at any time during the day. <br /> 27 <br /> 28 Mr. Cavanaugh felt the 5% franchise fee could be used for any costs incurred <br /> 29 with expanding the use of the government access channel . Mayor Pro-tem <br /> 30 Ranallo said that this fee is presently being used to cover expenses <br /> 31 and costs of cable. <br /> 32 <br /> 33 Councilmember Marks indicated that he is "hearing" that all the uses for <br /> 34 cable are not being addressed. He felt a group should be organized to address <br /> 35 cable's many uses. <br /> 36 <br /> 37 Councilmember Makowske felt Mr. Cavanaugh is indicating that the leadership <br /> 38 for use of public access cable channels should come from the Council . She <br /> 39 is not in agreement. . <br /> 40 <br /> 41 City Manager Burt was requested to follow up on how each channel could be <br /> 42 accessed and utilized-. <br /> 43 <br /> 44 Mayor Pro-tem Ranallo referred the Council and staff to the patriotic display <br /> 45 received from the Tri-City American Legion. <br /> 46 <br /> 47 City Manager Burt had requested a representative of Tri-City American <br /> 48 Legion attend the Council Meeting -for a formal presention of this display. <br /> 49 No one responded to this request. <br /> 50 <br />
