The franchisee shall, upon request, provide without charge, a reasonable number of outlets of expanded basic cable to those franchising authority offices, fire station(s), police station(s) and public school building(s) that are passed by its cable system. The outlets shall not be used to sell services in or throughout the buildings, nor shall outlets be located in areas open to the public. The franchising authority shall take reasonable precautions to prevent any use of franchisee’s cable system in any manner that results in the inappropriate use thereof or any loss or damage to the cable system. Users of the outlets shall hold the franchisee harmless from any and all liability or claims arising out of their use of the outlets, including but not limited to, those arising from copyright liability. The franchisee shall not be required to provide an outlet to the buildings where the drop line from the feeder cable to the buildings or premises exceeds or unless the appropriate governmental entity agrees to pay the incremental cost of the drop line in excess of 300 cable feet.
