117.10 ASSIGNMENT.
The franchise shall apply and bind the City and the Company, their successors and assigns, provided that any assignment by the Company shall be subject to the approval of the Council by resolution, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, except that no consent shall be required for any assignment or transfer by merger, consolidation or reorganization. The City shall have 60 days after the effective date of the assignment to adopt the resolution. If the City fails to adopt a resolution affirming or rejecting the assignment during the 60-day period, the assignment shall be deemed approved. The Company shall provide notice to the City in the event of an assignment of the franchise.
