June 23, 1982 Council President Victor J. Tedesco and Hanorable Members of the City Coun.cil Seventh Floor, City I�all Saint Pau1, AZinnesota 55102 Dear Fresident Tedesco arid Council Members: , On June 24 at the 10:00 a.m. City Council meeting, I will be making a motion to reconside.r Ordinance No. 278873 dealing with the cable television franchise. 0�1 June 18 the Energy, Utilities and Environment Corrnnittee met as a whole and . came to an agreement that the City Cotulcil would retain control of the franchising process, development of RFP, and the duty of_ over.seeing the cable comQnunications staff and budget. Several amendments were made to Councilman l'Vilson's original resolution with the intent of maintaining Council. control. However, after reviewing the �nended resolution ivhich �aas brought back from committee by Councilman �Vilson and passed by the full Council, it is apparent that the Council failed to eliminate �vording that wi"11 in fact assign the city acbninistration the duty of ovexseeing the cable co�rnnwlications staff and budget. Since this was not the intent of the Energy Cormnittee on June 18, I will be making a motion to delete paragraph 8 of the resolution dealing with the cable coriununi- cations staff. I will also be making a motion to amend the beginning portion of paragraph 9 so it would read as follows: "FURTf-IER RESOLVED, that the cable staff and consultant ►vill remain under the st�pervision of the Council; and a task force of representatives of the city departments be vnmediately formed for the purpose of working with the consultant and cable staff to:" In addition, I will be making a motion to add the following wording after nwnber 7 of paragraph 9: "FURTI-IER RESOLVEll, that the City Council will begin sereening and hiring one or more consultants to assist with the process after a period of two weeks from this date." �Z't'�' HALL SZVENTH FLOOR SAINT PAUL, MINNESOTA 55102 ��_ � Council Pres�dent Victor J. Tedesco and June 23, 1982 Honorable b4embers of the City CoLmcil Page 2 , . I have included a copy of the passed resolution with notations of intended changes. IF you have any suggestions as to how we might further clarify or amend the resolution so that it is in line with the discussion on June 18, I would be glad to hear them.
