(A) Subject to securing any required federal certification, the Town Council expressly reserves the right to approve the rates which the grantee charges its subscribers for basic service, and the rates for other services as the Town Council may hereafter be permitted to regulate by law. The grantee shall not deny, delay, interrupt, or terminate cable services or the use of community communications facilities to subscribers or users because the Town Council denies a request for a rate increase, provided, however, that nothing herein shall be construed to limit the grantee’s right to seek judicial review of the action.
(B) The grantee shall file with the town on December 31 of each year a full schedule of all subscriber and user rates and all other charges including, but not limited to, pay television, lease channels, and any other discrete services made in connection with the cable system.
(C) The grantee shall not discriminate in the assessment, levy, charge imposition, or collection of rates on the basis of age, race, creed, color, religion, national origin, sex, or marital status. This restriction shall not be construed to prohibit the grantee from making available a senior citizen discount of up to 10% off the standard charge for basic service to all subscribers age 65 and older, or from reducing or waiving charges in conjunction with promotional campaigns for the purpose of attracting new subscribers or users.
