The problems which the community £eels exist are as followst l. The direction going west on o0th �venue meeting with 2-� Street is a blind corner. 2. The direetion going east on 50th Avenue you must slow doWn or stop to see i� there is any tra�'fic as there is a apartment building t� t e r �_ of .ou. 3• The direCtion going south on 2�- Street as you come to 60th Avenue� is on a down grade level and also a blind corner to the left. �+. The direction going north on 2-� Street; is on a up grade level and you must slow down or stop at the corner as�there is an empty field to the right and you cannot see what is ahead t�ll you pass the street of 60 Avenue. We have many children riding bicyles in ti:is'area and also there are many teenage drivers we h�ve noticed� that do not stop� slow down or take any pre-cautibn on these corners. Also, we have children that cross these corners to walk to their bus stops for school. We would appreciate some consideration in this matter and have it looked into as we feel these stap signs are need¢d for the ssfety o.f our children. I would like to be notified when tk;is matter w111 be presented at the next council meetin�, a� tti;ere are neople in this community that would like to be present. � • I Sincerely yours, � / i � '�-°�' �-[,2G�,,�..-,�-� �-�'� N.rs.

Qureshi� City Engineer � Dr�TE: September 14� 1972 MSbBf! NpMBER: CM #72-28 jtE: Petitiqn For Installing "STOP" Signs On 60th Ave, & 2 1/2 St. Tntersections The above mentioned intersection has been studied in regard to the abpve peXition. Our examittatioA of the records of accidents (See Attachment �1) and a p�yaical exami.nation pf �tte intersection shows that a"STOP" sign at Ch3s inter'section is not waF=anted (See also� Attachment #2, a letter from Chief of ?olice, E, McCarthy to Public Safety Di.rector� James Hill, concurring in this analysis). The standards set in the "Uniform Traffic Control Devices Manual" specify ' Chat, because a"STOP" sign esuaes substantial inconvenience to motorists, it ehould only be'used where warranted (See Attachment #3) and this intarsec- tlon doas not meet these sCandards. A1so� see the attached Letter from a resident complaining about the lnstallation of "$TOP" signs where they are not warraqted (See Attachment �k4), RECOMI�NAATIONS: 1. A"STOY" sign at this location does not meet the requirements of ihe "Unlform TraEfic Qontiol Devices Manual"� so ahould not be installed. 2. If Xhe City Council still wishes to install a"STOP" aign because of some mi.nor visual prpblem� then it should be installed to stop east- west traffic on 60th Avenue.

McCarthy, Chiet of Potice Dates September 13, 1972 Subj4Ct: T�affiC - 60th �ve. N.E. 6 2'� St. N.E. As per your inst�uctipns, I went'to the interaection of 60th and 2�f St. to ohserve the traffic situation. This is being dane as the result pf a petition for stop signs received from Mr;. BOrtrum Booth, 6000 2� St. N,E. Going re4st on 60th Ave,' 2� St. fs blind to the north, because pF a high bank on the northeast corner. 60th Ave. deadends at 3rd. St. and there are no hquses on 60th From 2� St. east. Go1ng north on 2k St. it is difficult to see to tha east due to a high lot on the corner. This is not blind, however, Travei� from any pth� direction is npt biocked at ait. The apartment honse on the corner ts set fa� enough back so there is no sight pr qb 1 an, I Rit at the intersection from 0915 this date until 1020 and duri�g that period of time, seven vehicles went through the in- tersectian. One gaing south, two going north� three going west, a�nd o�e 9oing east. There was no evidence o1� speed, careless- �esa, or any other vlolation. I►� an a t�affic safety standpoint, I wouid say there is no just- ification for th4 installation of stop signt at this intersection �!t this t1mQ. ��i/�` �1�` /�� E. W.

I can see no reason why there is a stop sign at Sgth Avenue and 7th Street except for speed control. This is just a three-way corner with very little traffic on Sqth. If a stop sign were to be Placed on 7th Street to do traffic any good, the sign should be at 57th Avenue and 7th Street -- 57th Avenue being the through street to University. This stop sign creates so much noise from the cars stopping ' and gunning the cars to take off.

DAVIS, City Manager f � ITEM �7 Receipt af 1973 Bvdget and Setting Meetings of the Council to Review the Budget, ' 1 CATV ADVISORY COM�IITTEE MEETING OF AUGUST 28, 1972 � ' The CATV advisory committee met with General Television for a pub- lic informal hearing on August 28, 1972. All committee members were present. General Television was represented by Jim Goetz, ' the president of the company, Bob Hi.nkley, Mr. Goetz assistant, and Ned Cogswell, the executive vice-president and director of engineering of General Television Ink. Father Ed began the questioning. What is the company going to give the citizens of Fridley in the immediate future, and what does it see for the next fifteen years. How can this franchise guanantee productive use of this new median which has such high potential and how can it be co.mmerically rewarding so that it's stockholders likewise are satisfied and find it a worthwhile gamble2 Jim Goetz anawered the question, It may be beneficial for me tonight to try and share with you the many segements that make up the composite that we talk about---�ATV itself. I think theres eome confusion concerning what CATV is in the market place, who's involved in it, and what it can do. First I should explain alittle about General Television Minnesota Ink who is the nominee of this franchise. General Television I�A7 Ink is one of five subsidiaries of General Telesision in!c. General $elevision Ink is the current cooperation that stock is traded pubically, its been a public coop�ation for over a decade. We also have a subsidiary of First Televlsion Cooperation which is a common carrior of Micrawave Incorporation. We provide CAT�� pic- tures and the distribution of signal to many other systems including most of ouz competitors in the count�y. We also have a system known as Telefact Research Systems Ink. Telefect is one of the very first market research compatnies to utiliae cable televis- ion in America, So we have some rather broad eacperience in the cable television field. , First I would like to talk about the catagories of servi are available Qn cable television and who regulates thos I think we have taken the opportunity to send you a copy ' Federal Communications Con¢nissions rules and regulations announced. 4�1hat I would likelto do is explain to you the tl�at are available today or will potentially �e available ' is proposed to regulate thea in the publlc's interest. ce that e services. ot the that were services and who The first catagory of services that are available in a cable va,sion system are what we call the broadcast channels. These are over the air broadcast channel:>. Now tor example in the oi Fridley we are proposing obviouslX: (chart, page 2} tele- City : :� CATV, August 28, 1972 Page 2 wCCO--Tv I'.STP--TV ICMSP--TV WTCN--TV WGN--TV WVTV--TV (these are two distant sig- nals that we are authorized to bring in to this metro- politan markat by those rules.) Federal Cormnunications Commission There axe two other UHF cocmoercial licenses available but not built in the twin city area, and should they ever be granted and activated, any cable television system you have, whoever own it, must carry all of these. Now �'ll talk about who's going to regulate what they carry. The FCC does all the regulating of all af these. They tell us what signals we can carry, which we can't carry, and whieh we must carry. ' So we have the coimsierCial broadcasti.ng available. 2'hat's a11 regulated by the classification of services is the Local , Local Ori4ination Channel ' Fridley origination side of �ervices that are FCC. The second kind oi Origination Channel's. Company and FCC ' The local origination channel will be Fridley's or the franchising entity local origination vechile. This gets into the real heart , of cable televisiori, There is a communication gap in tne City of Fridley. The commera*al regional stations don't have a reporter here tonight, do they? You don't have a daily newspaper that has ' a reporter h�re tonight. You don't have a radio station that has a reporter here. There is a communication gap in the metzopolit- ian areas of this country, This is what the FCC tries to address ' itself to, was that there raust be programing of local origination. This is a channel that is regulated in its programing content by _ the company with supervision of tha FCC. Commercial activity on ' 8� 1 1 1 ' ' ' � e�'�; ii" ' ' ' ' ' 1 ' , � ' ' ' CATV, August 28, 1972, Page 3 this channel is regulated by the FCC to say that we can only run commercials at what they call nacural breaks, Commercials on local origina�ion channels may only be run at the beginning and end of programs. Local origination channel is not going to com- pete with V7CC0 or any other commerc�al stations. Z'he third general catagory of services available or will be available on cable television are ��i�at I cell access channels. There arfl two kinds of access channels: Access Channels R ulated B: 1) Public a)governrpent a)franchising authority b)educational b)educational users c)public access c)FCC ( * reserve 5 channels for higher education, voc-tec education library services, religion users and social services. 2) Leased a)public use b)labor use FCC and users . c)medical use djlegal use If franchising authority happens to be Fridley, they regulate use of the c2tannel, if it's anoi:a county, anoka county regulates the use, eLC. The cable television system company has nothinq to do with it. It has nothing to do with educational access Channel. Public aCCess channel is a channel thereby a citizen can coine in and say, I want to be heasd. This is w3iy cable television's greatest friend is America happens to be the black or minority. 1'he FCC says the public access channel wi11 be administered on a £isst come risst serve basis. Father Ed asked, By whom? The company must keep a log and we must put down and,the person must siqn the log that on sucn and such a date, at such and such a time they requested such and such. And we must nave thern sign what they requestad. It is our responsibility to keep records. '�om Myhra said, �hey haven't been a raging success have they2 � ' : CATV, August 28, 1972 page 4 ' Jim answered, =t all depends on who you talk to. Ovarnight, nothing is a succass. Its a new field, a.new idea, We are going to have to learn to wal}: before we run. So these are the public aacess channels. As you multiply them, say education is going to need more ci:annels, the same guidelines apply. In the FCC regulations, they say this is the basics that must be provided-one channel Aor government, one channel £or edu- cational use, etc. What we have said in our proposal already to this community is that we will reserve 5 channels...(see* on chart, page 3) If at anytime, anybody in these fields coqles in an� they $ay. look we have a program, we think we can use it, we'd like to do it. P7e'd say fine, if you believe it, fine. Why would you do that Jim? [ae are concerned with the uti]�ization of the services and the system, this is our best interest and this has been in_our history in St. Cloud. I have worked very closely with the people in St. Cloud and we think cabZe television is like anyching else; it's only a value if it's used, My understanding from discussions that have yone on here in the ' City of Eridley was that this group £ormed under the ordinance, was to advise the city council as to what to do and who would get time on channels. This seems like a qood role for a group like ' this to do is to evaluate the commuaities needs and interests on these two service channels. �Phis is the greatest £lexibility within cab],e television and iP people say this is unclear and it won't ' work, thGn what they are really saying is that they can't work with their own community. Now this is the public access side as we talk about it. Naa all of these channels are free. Cable television company gets absolut- ely no revenues from any of these people. The use them absolutley for nothing. The Federal government says that if anyone comes in off the stxeet and he wants to go on television and you have t,o produce a camera man, and a technician to run the whole program, you have tq do that free up to f:ive minutes a time. vrho pays for it? �he cable television company must pay for it up to iive min- utes a time. Beyond that, no one can raquire a cable televis?_on compdny to pro4ide more money or more time free. If anyone wants to make a presentation on a public access channel for more than fj.ve minutes, they have to be prepared to pay for it. We provide absol,utely free the total vechile throughout the community to every home that is a subscriber. Theres no sense in using something just because its there. Someday we believe, there isn't going to be a educational institution in chis couniry that won't recognize the great value that cable television can liave to them. You can't rely on the coverage your qoing to get out oL ne�wspapers, but you can rely on the coveraqe you'll get from this channel. 1 ' ' l � [J , ' ' ' lJ ' ' ' ' CATV, August 28, 1972 Page 5 Father Ed said, Loca1 con¢mxnity will have to support and devalop this concept. I wonder what che company intends to do to develop this kind of interest in the use of these access channels. Jim said, I'll get into this thorougnly alittZe later. To say for now theres little we can do. The only thing we can do is to promote on a local origination channel community involvement. 4Te can't knock on everyones door and say, look, your city council is great or the cable commission �s great. People have got to see it in action. Whatever company is in here needs your guidance, you pro- ple knaw whats best, you live here. I think this is a significant part that �he advisory co�nittee will play--a total involvement oi it all. The local origination station will start out at minimum of forty hours a week which we will provide in the`eomaunity. Once we get the franchise and knaa that we're going to operate in a community, we take a survey to detarmine viewing trends of p�ople. We also try to determi.ne the time that theis home, the time that they do have their television sets on. I happen to believe that any o£ tha companies who made application to the city of Fridley would treat them well. You would not have a problem with any company because of two reasons. Number one, they have a moral commitment, and number two, if we would do that sort of thing, economics would get us because we are a totally voluntary service and if the subscrjber feels that it is not worth- while, he just quits payi.ng, r�nd unfortunately £or the company but Eortunatley for the guy that wants to do that, your city ordits- 3nce says that the company cannot charge a disconnection fee, which means as soom as the guy decides to stop paying his $5.50 a month, We've got to spend the money to go disconneet him and he has no penalty. So your ordinance put all the economic burden for bad per�ormance on the franchisee and not on tne subscriber. The second side of service channels are the lease channels. These , are channels that are available to business usage, medical etc. (see chart, page 3) The FCC clearly regulates it. i9e must as a cable television company lease that channel to any user who wants ' it and he has certain oblj.gations. The £ee is arrived at by the cable television company. The iees that we charge must be submit- ted to the FCC and they evaluate it� This area is the s�de that ' their talking about in essence going into a common carr3or stace. trhdt common carrior is, is that everyona has equal access and everyone ha:s same xate. The FCC oY,ays it. If they look at our , annua�s an8 s�y we shou�.d lower our rates, run it cheaper, we have to. Expexience in this area tiaill teach us a1ot� but at this point oae don't have much experience. �• 1 CATV, August News-Stock Market Program-P.irectory �!� ime-�V7e�ther -Nhx s ic Movie Channel 28, 1972 Page 6 compam% �Yie next catagory of channels is the other-service channels. We are proposinc� and we wi7.l have news-stock max'ket, etc.(chart) 5o for every one af the chanrxels we have and everyone we use oureelf, we have to have another one in reserve. ' This ie a question that i$ always asked, which of these c�annels are interconnectable? Every single catagory of service channels that I talked about is interconnectable i£ wanted by the paople. Jim Goetz gave the committee a beolclet to read. They disc�issed the section marked proposed amendament. The i.nterconnection ques- tion in our judgement could be strengthened, improved, and clarified by substituting this amendement for section 2o in your ordinance. Jim then read the amendaments In�erconnection required sabject to the City of Fridley obtaining interconnection approval or approvals with the appropriate r.iuniciple govern- ment, school board or any other duly constituted govern,-nental unit the grantee of a franchise here under shall interconriect its broad-band teZla communications network with all other broad»band te1Za communications networks serving the Mpls. St. Paul Metropolitan area. : We think this would clear out problems concerning what would ' happen if we had a system and somebody didn't get one for ten years. We think this is naw wordeGl to cooperate with the £ranchising entity which is the City of Fridley. It does one thing that the , cha,isman mentioned a bit ago-ana that is haw do you keep the city involved in it and participating on a continuing basis. If every community that is concerned by cable television in this area put ' in this section or a section similar to this, thL questions are over. The syste�t that we proposed for the city of Fridley is i,nevitable. ' We talked about access Cllannels on more than one basis. we said we have the opportunity to lease an access channel for a long list ' fl 1 � ' 1 ' : CATV, August 28, 1°72 Page 7 of servicc� arid usage.

If *1ie system is interconnected to do any one thing, it can do all things. Ned Cogswell will exnlain the Duo-H�.w system, , We propose cwo systems, one oi whici� nas all of the services men- tioned here, They go directly to the subscriber. The best way to make thqse sysi:ems so that they can interconnect and have the , shortest runs is the Hub system, lnis was brouyht to our attenti� n i.n another community where they �•,anted to comtnunicate r'ight within a ward. They war.ted to have only people in that ward partzcipating , and only those same people receiving the broadcast-the rest of the arpa was not intdrested. With a tinb system we can do this. The other ��a was what to do wi�h sehool systems because they will ' need th�ix awn additional channels ior their own internal coIIttnun- �.cation'between schools. We then Iiave the capability for most all of the schools to communicate with their central production centers ' and many o� them directly between themselvea. If we don't build it� naw, it'll 7�e much more e.:2�ansive in the future. Louk at� page twelve of the same booklets. We have adopted a con- vertsr system that uses a full 30 cha:uiels. The 30 channel converter gives us access to all channels on the cable. Father Ed said, theres a wnole question conearninq the converters. v.�hat � happens in the �ouse once this is installedZ Ned said, thats why I brought this along, you can carry it with you to your favorite chairo You can tune the tele�.•ision from your chair as well as change the channel. Its sma1.1 enough to carry around witn you and is a rather decorative anverter Jim said, we should explain that �he system we are propo,�sing here is activally t��c. cable television s�stems. Y7e will run two wires- thats haw we get trQmendous capacity. This converter is in mass production today-put out by Gerald Manufacturing Company. Gerald sells about 80�;� of the total market on hardware for cable televis- ion. Father Ed said, since its a commercial enterprise, hav are you going to be able to, say, for instance, some people like tne Minn- : CATV, August 28, 1972 Page 8 esot� Sy:nphony Orchestra, haa are you going to briny in this thing tha� only a few people likeZ Jim said, look we say lets utilize all the progran:ing resources in the community. We are very inter- este� in going over to the Guthrie-f3ne, maybe we'll have a small audience. This is the whole cable telecision story, we are the dj,uersification. F��1}ar �d said, haw can the community get a greater imput into tYidt �t}duStry that will allaa it so that it won't be short-changed �s it'has been by broadcasting stations in the past. ,Tim said, I t-,�iin}c a cit�.zens advisory committee could play the key ro1e. I k�Ql�eve that if a citizens advisory committee wrote letters, went �p Was �.ngton to meet with the head o£ the Cable Television �t��Cq�nt D#viaion of the FCC, participated in the hearings, � m7ce having coatinoua hearings, they have sub-committee's at #.��F�C lpvel to continue to raonitor the experiences that the com- ��ti�� e having. Father Ed said, I'm really lnterested in 'k�� pomp�y itself ahowing some kind of interest in a citizens co1�+lYtt�e and sorae kind of Eitizeqs imput. � look upon the cit- �,��i�s o� Fridley when thay put i:heis $5.50 a month as really being �ha�,�oldq�s in your company. Jim said, theres no question about .�t �ki�thout them you don't exist. Broadcasters will tell you that �b�� q �ree. The answer to that ia that they get their revenues ��t��h a hiddan third party affair, advertising, We have to sat- �S�"�{}e consumer bacause we knock on his door and get the.money �'�t�px Pd said, somebody questionad whether your happy with the ��{1chiBe t�at reads "up to fifteen years" which doesn't specify �5 px l�ss years, it just says up to fifteen years. Hav do you ��i�bout that? Mr. Goetz answered, I've got to read the ordin- �{�q� ovez again•-I'm not aware that it says that. �',�� Ed said, lets say that after fifteen years cable television ��'�Zf�X'� �uccess£ul. And so now it becomes essential for the com- ��i�y '�Yien what kind of control is there? Ther�s a franchise �ts �QQ� c�j.ven tc you that has nothing written into it as far ��`�eF4},�tit�bility is co�cerned� granted the fact that you've had q� �p_ will up to this point. But naw Yo� in. Theres nothing �.}� th� �i�lchise that guanantees me any rights to come in there ��d cpmpl�� ana say we ought to have greater public use of this at thi,s point. Naa you've made a good deal of money, you've got ��ougY} subscribers, ete. Jim said, the public is totally protec- tQd nqt 15 years from naa, but today. The FCC rules a�d regulations ��te t,hdt at any tim� the public access channel or channels �e�ci� s� c�rtain satruration of usage, we must to maintain our ce�tific��ion and right to operate fro:n Che FCC, make available t�le �q�t channel. So the publics interests in this area are totally C ' ! I �� ' � R CATV, August 28, 1972 Page 9 p�tot�ct�d. Dean �aj.dwell said, on these lease channels, you will lease these to a business-cotreet? What kind of charges would be made to the people who would become my customers? Jim said, it's totally up to the business that leased the channel. We cannot control that by t,jie adict of the FCC..We cannot interfere. Dean 9aid, on the case`where you are required to provide another channel, what if your already using 30 channels? Jim said, for every channel we use, �te have to have another one ai reserve. It may mean elimin- ating`a program that is not very successzul. If we find all 30 charanels in good use, we then move to the second cable which opens 30 more channels. � Tom Said, you've convinced me that any local company wi1J_ be inte�rested in loGal programing. Has any company put or. their stAEf somao}�e called a local program developer or something of t this ndtureg Pather Ed said, lets open up this whole area. W'hat kxi�d of studio, what kind of services,are you providing us and how �.r@ you c�oing to hAlp us, the community, in any way2 � , � � ' Jim said� our campany interosts here is to make a type of a shcxv- casa systam in the metro area. Pte'd like to build a model system $nd have other communities come here to view it. v7e do have a �ommitment and we do work at i.t. In St. Cloud we have a guy w+t►o's vir�ually sole responsibility is to develope interest and'activity in c�lile television. We were siyniiicantl� involved in getting the school boarG to participate in it. I asked on a numi�er of oceasions to go before the school boards here and to diacuss the matte�f We are going to be in great demand for certain technical skilj.s�that are not nav avallable. , The cAt�t��t}�r is lim�.ted as to what they can do. 9fhe FCC says openly that they �tudied the issue of cable television prior to issuing th@�� ru�.es longer than they studied any other sin�le communications ' vech�.l� or problem in the country, In over approx. three years, ev��yq2�e was cisculated in this country about cable television. I am �ure tY}�t the city of Fridley and every school district in this ' co�t�� rQy�eived invitations to i7ashington to tastify on thi:a, mat- tex�' Tk}ey�"�iave been dealing with cable since 1947 ans so they have tak�� i.rtto �oncern the public interest in the top 100 markets. I�ci�' in that area. 3'ci�l $?�id �lte consumer realizes that he has to ' wa�r or a�gther, but the question is when is he th�.rlg th�t he is wi7.ling to pay for� Ji.m said, a`gamble in the public sector to find that out. ' iq� i& hexQ in front of you, ready and able to h�fQ p�oduced a surity bvnd for our performance pay for it in one going to get some- no one has to take General Televis- make that test. we to do it. An be- � ' ' � � L , 1 ,. � � � � , � , , ' , ' � CATV, August 28, 1972 Page 10 yand that I 4on't know hvw riuch more good faith I could give you. As you look thrQugh the people associated with qeneral television you will see that they are associated with success. They do have knowledge irx hq✓ to make things happen. And beyond the reputztion of the people involved, their financial capacity to do it and our knowledge o£ tlie industry and the comcttunity that we serve, I don't kncrw haw I can!bring more credentials. Tom said� suppose Fridley were to turn their advisory committee inta a Fridley FCC and their going to say part of our agreement 15 that we are going to get a chance also to examine your books �nd make recoimnendations on the basis of profit. Do you believe this is legally possi,ble? Jim said, the Fridley city ordinance �lready stdt�s that the city counc9.1 has access to our books at �.nytime ��.ng regular business hours and it says that at least oncQ ��s� we mu'st produce a certified public audit of the oper- '�t1Q�' � To� �aidt perhaps it would be profitable for the company as well ��t ,tt}p �itiz�ns if there were sort of a mutual lets review this t��.ti� to see how its going: What we are concerned with i,s that w� ia,r�t �� advisory committee. We were wondering iE there was aj'1y `�!s?y A£ �uilding this 1n rather than just good intention. Jim ��,�.c��' tl}e answer to that is simple. I have a willingness to meet �r�Eh`ax�yor}e. I think I've demonstrated this clearly in the last �y� y�ars 51nce I'va been here. I don't think thexe� a soul in � pity of Fzidley who has called me that I haven't responded to ��$x�{cwst c�ses I've initated the contact. The greatest �ight �t you have is that in any business hours you have the right �.c� ��r�a�.� ��in ��}(� audit something. The city possesses, that ygower. '�'�� ;itici�m at this point is that you have proposed a amendament i'r� �.h� axea q� interconnection which was a sensitive area, but i �}i�.�}it a�a� }tWx'e sepaitive area is thia ,whole matter that this is �n��v��o�y aommittee and that is representative of haa the coqa- �}t31ty pa�i interject itself on a regular daily basis with the �dmpai4�'S pperation, This is not being some sort of regulatory #�c1s�y� t�14 Fcc doesn't give us that pawer nor has the city council. I�1{}k tt}e people would like to see in the ordinance some kind of j��$� €or tqpgting with the co�any on a regular basis and some sort caf"e�am�.i}�t�,pn of hav things are qoing. This is Father Ed's view- ��int� �7j.� c�o�t� sald, lets identi�y what potential services on the cable vr� w��t to talk about. The aecass side of the cable--the company �s �,r#�}ing to assist and make that pladge to you in our presenta- #.ion'�k��t We'll provide teahnical assistants, studio facilities, istc. This may be a positiva thing £or the city council to spell raut, q� the local origination side of it and what we're doing on w;„ . � , ' CATV, August.28, 1972 Page 11 1 oux� local origination channel, I think thats an area where there � should be a good deal of cooperation between the advisory commit- tee and the companyo The balance of the services on cable are controled by the entity that granted the franchise. ' � ' -'I ' � 1_I Dean �aldwell said, there is a fifteen year franchise yiven and theres been sorne suggesti�ns �l,ruughout the �estimony that we've hearc] t�dt perhaps there should be a shorter term, in order to allqw fo� t�te proper tyee of aecouniability. This is not a mat- te� of op�� competition between companies ir� order to assure the citizens o� Fridley that they will be getting the kind of service and accountability they should have. Jim Goetz said, in our met�q area the�e are three communities that I know of to date �„�ho have`�one through the serious delibera�ions that Fridley has. We want ko be reasonable. The franchise as it naw stands is almost a year ald� We have made a pledge to you in our proposal to the City c,f Fridley, that if the FCC changes and allaws more than twv diat�tt sign3l importatiws channels, we will bring those signals in. F�e tYy t�o identify what areas aren't regulated. , Tom �Iyi►x'a raid, I quess the fifteen years never bothered me, I guess I gqt �$�d to this right from the start so it never has bothered me� Byt ��,� do need some kind oz ongoining imput from the community. Jim g}id thdt he tYain ks a better word is involvement. I Deat� �aicj, theres another difference in the commercial television and'�adio�s license-that is that there are multiple areas serving a compan�r, So there is a competitive aspect there. Jim said, in � the i.dst year, the four broadcast stations in the twin cities had net grq��ts before federal income tax, They had a good thing going. We!�e ip cqmpetition with no one and we're the purveyor of every- , on� ��o war}ts to communicatea So I guess thats where the di£fer- e�� i��:?ve got competition anough £or our cable system. In our loc�� or gin�tion stations, we have to compete with wCCO, I:STP, , WGN� etc�'�verything that we put on the cable we're supposed to �q��te w�th, We don't exactly view it that way. We believe that 'kh@��x'�e we can.get on that cable, the larger percentage of , �� tio� �ye}11 get, larger percentage of coverage we'll get, thS.s is hcwr we live. , � , , ' 9aidi theres one quastion relative to advertising. You men- ed tt��t your source of income will not be the same as ierci}j. t�levision and that theirs is from advertising fees and s i& riot to be-is tfhat correct? ,]im answered, ov� primary Fe of incomg will bs through subscriber revenues. I believe ��o}�d source of income is going to be from the lease channelso e t�i,rd will be from advertising revenues which will be : ' �� ` - m ' r� � , � � , ; � , , � � !J , � , ! � ' CATV, August 28, 1972 Page 12 Fatk{�r Ed sa�d, I am surprised at the total lack of interest our �us�.#�ess comnunity has shown in this. I've seen no one come up ,�{td teStify vigouously for or against this thing. Haines said, tn�� leads to my question because I think we've all voiced a qr�dt coucern about the apathy in this thing. Theres also a gr��t anount of ignorance involved, I can see great potential �}i c�1e television. We are iaced right now with a money pro- }�1�� With a legal problem over signatures meaning people want � re�erendum. I don't want to see a referendum because o•` tne �r@m¢ndous amount of ignorance. Y7hat do you propose to do- hav are you gaing to conununicate to the prople? Dean said he had the S� qu�E�stion, ��.ds Let me try to express how I personally feel which does .{►�a� haw General Television feels, I would do and commit ��1 Te�.pvision to do anythinq that the citizens of this com- lity really want. I will commit our time and resources to the :��t to cooperate with this committee to see cable television �to the city of Fridley. I was mentally distressed because � g��.�ion circulated said,• to circulate a petition, the city �rt��' and the city of Fridley says that the ordinance must be :L�itn�ntdl to the welfaze of this community. If I for'one mo�ent a�tght �.t was detrimental to the com�nunity I'd be the first one �� #�ere wit� suggested amendaments or changes. 2'his com¢aunity f'k1't� rR�utAtion of being progressive and thats what brought h��'e in the first place. If you honestly evaluate the infor- :}q� in front of you and the documentation of whats been �se�}t$d to you, and if you can clearly identify where this l�arics is yoing to jeopardi�e this community in any way, lets � ._ .�S'�out it and change it. I L-hink its not only stood the test `�.hi� potFmittee's evaluation, but it's stood one other test-and 1ts �}i@ test of time. If this committee doesn't take a positive €io� p� �t T'd say it will be ten years before cable television :i %@ �x is� again. Because you are going to have a tough time :ting companies to come in here and make proposals. Tom M�}�� said, my concern is not thats its detrimental but what ca}� ter@ do to tRake it better? Jim said I agree with the id'ea oE a� 3a7vanced �dvisory coirunittee. My recollection is that we pro- p4seqlthat ta �he city attorney and we helped to draft the language �Y}�t eve�}tually appeared in the ordi.nance. To� ��}c1� theres one point I'd like to make that probably isn't �eue�.i}at {�pw, but when we talked about tha local origination pro- Q�'�ns �t o�{e time the council said that they should be determined b�•tt}� qit� and the company said no. Jim said, thats true, we are ' t qo}�g to allow the city to program the local oriqination �.,. &tation� We think thats a violation of the fisst amendaroent of the [� , ' �J � ' , � , ' ' � , , ' 1 , � ' , CP.TV, August 28. 1972 page 13 constitution. The city dlready has one channel oi: its awn to pro- graR}-thats the government regulation channel. I've13e.-e in the free enterprise system,,and the FCC wiil not all.ow the city to do this. I would not own a cahie television system with the lxal qrigination channel proqramed by the city any more than I'd hold a license for any one of my commercial broadcasting �tations if the federal qovernment wanted to program them. Cab1e television through our tocal oriyination channel can do more to de��elope a 'qommunity ida�nity and a community pride in the city of Fridley than any othex single thing thats happened in this community. We have to 7�� recAptive and willing to work with each other. �veryone isn`t goiny to like cable television but it isn't going ta hu�t those people who don't lilce it-they have nothing to lose.
