4111/ MOTION SECONDED AND CARRIED: Moved by Johnson, seconded by Tryon and <br /> passed unanimously to appoint Brad Lyman to the Pathways, Recreation and Parks <br /> Committee for a term of two years. <br /> 2.3 Presentation by Sun Country Cable <br /> John Dolan, Sun Country Cable, reported that the construction phase was complete <br /> and some areas had been recalculated regarding density. A report which had been <br /> prepared by Kathie Brinkman was distributed to Council which addressed the <br /> following issues: fixed price installations; field check installations and what was <br /> included in the initial hookup. Mr. Dolan also commented on franchise fees. Casey <br /> gave the example that on a $30 bill the franchise fee would be 5% or $1.50 for a total <br /> bill of $31.50. This is the way the company is now billing. The City Attorney has <br /> disputed this method of computation. The franchise fee of 5% is on gross earnings <br /> and is not separately computed such as a sales tax would be. Siegel suggested that <br /> the company show on the billing the total of the bill - for example $31.50 with a note <br /> that this total includes a franchise fee of 5% paid to the City. Mr. Dolan did not agree <br /> with the City Attorney but had agreed to follow her method of computation. He <br /> also inquired about the inspection fees for underground construction. They showed <br /> $20/mile in the franchise agreement but that was much different from what they <br /> were paying. Council asked staff for a report on this subject. Siegel also asked Mr. <br /> Dolan to send a letter to Council advising them formally when service would be <br /> �r available to all residents within the service area. (See paragraph 4 of Exhibit A of the <br /> franchise agreement.) It was also noted that the map at Town Hall was up-to-date <br /> on what streets had cable. <br /> Walter Starr, 13124 Byrd Lane, noted that his objection to having cable had <br /> apparently been raised at an earlier Council meeting as a result of a letter written by <br /> a neighbor and he wanted to explain his concerns to the Council. The proposed <br /> cable trench would pass within the drip line of nine oaks (possibly heritage oaks) <br /> and five of the nine trees were on his property. The California Oak Foundation <br /> recommended that no construction activity take place within the drip line of these <br /> trees. Mr. Stan did not understand how the Town could have a heritage tree <br /> ordinance and yet condone this trenching by Sun Country Cable. He also noted that <br /> he had never been contacted personally by Sun Country Cable. <br /> Brett Fontes, Sun Country Cable, stated that this was where existing utilities were <br /> but they were considering one other possibility. <br /> Siegel asked John Dolan to work with Mr. Starr and the Town Arborist on resolving <br /> this problem and to also include the Enviromental Design and Protection <br /> Committee. <br /> 2.4 Report from Edwina Comiso on CDBG Meeting <br /> February 20, 1991 <br /> 2 <br />
