(A) If the city determines that the grantee has violated any of the provisions of § 11.109 the city shall give written notice of such cause for termination to grantee, and of it's intention to terminate the franchise.
(B) The grantee shall have 30 days from the date of receipt of such notice to cure the cause for termination.
(C) If the grantee fails to cure the cause for termination within said 30 day period, the city may elect to terminate the franchise. Grantee shall be provided with an opportunity to be heard at a public hearing before the City Council of Columbia Heights prior to any decision to terminate the franchise.
(D) In the event that the city determines to terminate the franchise, the grantee shall have a period of 30 days, beginning the day following the date of the conclusion of the public hearing at which the termination of the franchise is considered, within which to file an appeal with the Board. During such 30 day period, and until the Board determines the appeal, if an appeal is taken, the franchise shall remain in full force and effect, unless the term thereof sooner expires. If the Board approves of the action of the city, the franchise shall terminate immediately; if the Board disapproves of the action of the city, the franchise shall remain in full force and effect during the terms thereof, unless sooner terminated in accordance with law or rules of the Board or the terms of the franchise agreement. Any such appeal to the Board is a contested case to which the Board is not a party.
