A. Findings And Intent:
1. Findings Regarding Rights-Of-Way: The City Council of the City of Holladay, Utah, finds that the rights-of-way within the City of Holladay (hereinafter "City"):
a. Are critical to the travel and transport of persons and property in the business and social life of the City;
b. Are intended for public uses and must be managed and controlled consistent with that intent;
c. Can be partially occupied by the facilities of utilities and other public service entities delivering utility and public services rendered for profit, to the enhancement of the health, welfare, and general economic well-being of the City and its citizens; and
d. Are a unique and physically limited resource requiring proper management to maximize the efficiency and to minimize the costs to the taxpayers of the foregoing uses and to minimize the inconvenience to and negative effects upon the public from such facilities' construction, placement, relocation, and maintenance in the rights-of-way.
2. Finding Regarding Compensation: The City finds that the City should receive fair and reasonable compensation for use of the rights-of-way.
3. Finding Regarding Local Concern: The City finds that while utility systems are in part an extension of interstate commerce, their operations also involve rights-of-way, Municipal franchising, and vital business and community service, which are of local concern.
4. Finding Regarding Promotion Of Utility Services: The City finds that it is in the best interests of its taxpayers and citizens to promote the rapid development of utility services, including those utilizing emerging technology, on a nondiscrimination basis, responsive to community and public interest, and to assure availability for Municipal, educational and community services.
5. Findings Regarding Franchise Standards: The City finds that it is in the interests of the public to franchise and to establish standards for franchising providers in a manner that:
a. Fairly and reasonably compensates the City on a competitively neutral and nondiscriminatory basis as provided herein;
b. Encourages competition by establishing terms and conditions under which providers may use the rights-of-way to serve the public;
c. Fully protects the public interests and the City from any harm that may flow from such commercial use of rights-of-way;
d. Protects the police powers and rights-of-way management authority of the City, in a manner consistent with Federal and State law;
e. Otherwise protects the public interests in the development and use of the City infrastructure;
f. Protects the public's investment in improvements in the rights-of-way; and
g. Ensures that no barriers to entry of telecommunications providers are created and that such franchising is accomplished in a manner that does not prohibit or have the effect of prohibiting telecommunication services, within the meaning of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 ("Act") [United States PL No. 104 - 104].
6. Power To Manage Rights-Of-Way: The City adopts this chapter pursuant to its power to manage the rights-of-way, pursuant to common law, the Utah Constitution and statutory authority, and receive fair and reasonable, compensation for the use of rights- of-way by providers as expressly set forth by section 253 of the Act. (Ord. 2018-01, 1-4-2018)
This chapter shall provide the basic local scheme for providers of utility services and systems that require the use of the rights-of-way, including providers of both the system and service, those providers of the system only, and those providers who do not build the system but who only provide services. This chapter shall apply to all future providers and to all providers in the City prior to the effective date of this chapter, whether operating with or without a franchise as set forth herein. (Ord. 2018-01, 1-4-2018)
A. Exclusions:
1. Provisions Applicable To Excluded Providers: Providers excused by other law that prohibits the City from requiring a franchise shall not be required to obtain a franchise, but all of the requirements imposed by this chapter through the exercise of the City's police power and not preempted by other law shall be applicable.
2. Interconnection Of Facilities Owned By Single Business: The requirement of obtaining a telecommunications franchise shall not apply to a business that only desires to cross or use City rights-of-way to interconnect its own facilities, wholly located within City limits, if the City Manager finds:
a. That the business will use City rights-of-way only to interconnect its own facilities; and
b. The entity agrees to enter into a written license agreement with the City wherein the entity agrees to:
(1) Assume all costs (including City oversight and inspection costs) associated with construction and maintenance of the facilities, including all costs associated with the complete restoration of the City right-of-way after construction (or removal) of the facilities in the City right-of-way;
(2) Assume all liability arising from the construction, installation, maintenance, repair, use, operation, and/or removal of the facilities and indemnify, defend and hold City harmless from any such liability; and
(3) Pay a reasonable license fee for use of right-of-way based on comparable revenues received by the City from its franchisees.
3. City Facilities Or Poles: Nothing herein shall give the entity the right to use City facilities or poles, the use of which shall be governed by the license agreement. (Ord. 2018-01, 1-4-2018)
A. Nonexclusive Franchise: The City is empowered and authorized to issue nonexclusive franchises governing the installation, construction, and maintenance of systems in the City's rights-of- way, in accordance with the provisions of this chapter. The franchise is granted through a franchise agreement entered into between the City and provider.
B. Every Provider Must Obtain A Franchise: Except to the extent preempted by Federal or State law, as ultimately interpreted by a court of competent jurisdiction, including any appeals, every provider must obtain a franchise prior to constructing a utility system or providing utility services using the rights-of-way, and every provider must obtain a franchise before constructing an open video system or providing open video services via an open video system. Any open video system or service shall be subject to the customer service and consumer protection provisions applicable to the cable TV companies to the extent the City is not preempted or permitted as ultimately interpreted by a court of competent jurisdiction, including any appeals. The fact that particular utility systems may be used for multiple purposes does not obviate the need to obtain a franchise for other purposes. By way of illustration and not limitation, a cable operator of a cable system must obtain a cable franchise, and, should it intend to provide telecommunications services over the same system, must also obtain a telecommunications franchise.
C. Nature Of Grant: A franchise shall not convey title, equitable or legal, in the rights-of-way. A franchise is only the right to occupy rights-of-way on a nonexclusive basis for the limited purposes and for the limited period stated in the franchise; the right may not be subdivided, assigned, or subleased. A franchise does not excuse a provider from obtaining appropriate access or pole attachment agreements before collocating its system on the property of others, including the City's property. This section shall not be construed to prohibit a provider from leasing conduit to another provider, so long as the lessee has obtained a franchise.
D. Current Providers: Except to the extent exempted by Federal or State law, any provider acting without a franchise on the effective date of this chapter shall request issuance of a franchise from the City within ninety (90) days of the effective date of this chapter. If such request is made, the provider may continue providing service during the course of negotiations. If a timely request is not made, or if negotiations cease and a franchise is not granted, the provider shall comply with the provisions of section 14.16.010 et seq., of this title and this chapter. If a provider has previously entered into a telecommunications franchise agreement with City the term of which has not expired, the provider may continue to operate under the existing franchise agreement until the term of the franchise agreement expires or may negotiate a new franchise agreement with City.
E. Nature Of Franchise: The franchise granted by the City under the provisions of this chapter shall be a nonexclusive franchise providing the right and consent to install, repair, maintain, remove and replace its system on, over and under the rights-of- way in order to provide services.
F. Regulatory Approval Needed: Before offering or providing any services pursuant to the franchise, a provider shall obtain any and all regulatory approvals, permits, authorizations or licenses for the offering or provision of such services from the appropriate Federal, State and local authorities, if required, and shall submit to the City upon the written request of the City evidence of all such approvals, permits, authorizations or licenses.
G. Term: No franchise issued pursuant to this chapter shall have a term of less than five (5) years or greater than fifteen (15) years. Each franchise shall be granted in a nondiscriminatory manner. (Ord. 2018-01, 1-4-2018)
A. Compensation And Payments:
1. Compensation: As fair and reasonable compensation for any franchise granted pursuant to this chapter, a provider shall have the following obligations:
a. Application Fee: In order to offset the cost to the City to review an application for a franchise and in addition to all other fees, permits or charges, a provider shall pay to the City, at the time of application, a non-refundable application fee as shown on the consolidated fee schedule adopted by the City Council.
b. Franchise Fees: The franchise fee, if any, shall be set forth in the franchise agreement. The obligation to pay a franchise fee shall commence on the completion date. The franchise fee is offset by any business license fee or Business License Tax enacted by the City.
c. Excavation Permits: The provider shall also pay fees required for an excavation permit as provided in section 14.16.010 et seq., of this title.
2. Timing: Unless otherwise agreed to in the franchise agreement, all franchise fees shall be paid on a monthly basis within forty five (45) days of the close of each calendar month.
3. Fee Statement And Certification: Unless a franchise agreement provides otherwise, each fee payment shall be accompanied by a statement showing the manner in which the fee was calculated and shall be certified as to its accuracy.
4. Future Costs: A provider shall pay to the City or to third parties, at the direction of the City, an amount equal to the reasonable costs and reasonable expenses that the City incurs for the services of third parties (including but not limited to attorneys and other consultants) in connection with any renewal or provider-initiated renegotiation, or amendment of this chapter or a franchise, provided, however, that the parties shall agree upon a reasonable financial cap at the outset of negotiations. In the event the parties are unable to agree, the parties may submit the issue to arbitration in accordance with the rules and procedures of the American Arbitration Association.
5. Taxes And Assessments: To the extent taxes or other assessments are imposed by taxing authorities, other than the City on the use of the City property as a result of a provider's use or occupation of the rights-of-way, the provider shall be responsible for payment of its pro rata share of such taxes, payable annually unless otherwise required by the taxing authority. Such payments shall be in addition to any other fees payable pursuant to this chapter.
6. Interest On Late Payments: In the event that any payment is not actually received by the City on or before the applicable date fixed in the franchise, interest thereon shall accrue from such date until received at the rate charged for delinquent State Taxes.
7. No Accord And Satisfaction: No acceptance by the City of any fee shall be construed as an accord that the amount paid is in fact the correct amount, nor shall such acceptance of such fee payment be construed as a release of any claim the City may have for additional sums payable.
8. Not In Lieu Of Other Taxes Or Fees: The fee payment is not a payment in lieu of any tax, fee or other assessment except as specifically provided in this chapter, or as required by applicable law. By way of example, and not limitation, excavation permit fees and fees to obtain space on the City owned poles are not waived and remain applicable.
9. Continuing Obligation And Holdover: In the event a provider continues to operate all or any part of the system after the term of the franchise, such operator shall continue to comply with all applicable provisions of this chapter and the franchise, including, without limitation, all compensation and other payment provisions throughout the period of such continued operation, provided that any such continued operation shall in no way be construed as a renewal or other extension of the franchise, nor as a limitation on the remedies, if any, available to the City as a result of such continued operation after the term, including, but not limited to, damages and restitution.
10. Costs Of Publication: A provider shall assume any publication costs associated with its franchise that may be required by law. (Ord. 2018-01, 1-4-2018)
A. Applications:
1. Franchise Application: To obtain a franchise to construct, own, maintain or provide services through any system within the City, to obtain a renewal of a franchise granted pursuant to this chapter or to obtain the City approval of a transfer of a franchise, as provided in subsection 14.18.090A2 of this chapter granted pursuant to this chapter, an application must be filed with City on the form approved by the City Council. The application form may be changed by the City Manager so long as such changes request information that is consistent with this chapter. Such application form, as amended, is incorporated by reference.
2. Application Criteria: In making a determination as to an application filed pursuant to this chapter, the City may, but shall not be limited to, request the following from the provider:
a. A copy of the order from the PSC granting a Certificate of Convenience and Necessity.

3. Franchise Determination: The City, in its discretion, shall determine the award of any franchise on the basis of these and other considerations relevant to the use of the rights-of-way, without competitive bidding. (Ord. 2018-01, 1-4-2018)
A. Requirements:
1. General Requirement: No provider shall receive a franchise unless it agrees to comply with each of the terms set forth in this section governing construction and technical requirements for its system, in addition to any other reasonable requirements or procedures specified by the City or the franchise, including requirements regarding locating and sharing in the cost of locating portions of the system with other systems or with City utilities.

2. Quality: All work involved in the construction, maintenance, repair, upgrade and removal of the system shall be performed in a safe, thorough and reliable manner using materials of good and durable quality. If, at any time, it is determined by the FCC or any other agency granted authority by State or Federal law or the FCC to make such determination, that any part of the system, including, without limitation, any means used to distribute signals over or within the system, is harmful to the public health, safety or welfare, or quality of service or reliability, then a provider shall, at its own cost and expense, promptly correct all such conditions.
3. Licenses And Permits: A provider shall have the sole responsibility for diligently obtaining, at its own cost and expense, all permits, licenses or other forms of approval or authorization necessary to construct, maintain, upgrade or repair the system, including but not limited to any necessary approvals from persons and/or the City to use private property, easements, poles and conduits.

Rights-Of-Way Change - Obligation To Move System: When the City is changing a rights-of-way and makes a written request, a provider is required to move or remove its system from the rights-of-way, without cost to the City, to the extent provided in the excavation ordinance. This obligation does not apply to systems originally located on private property pursuant to a private easement, which property was later incorporated into the rights-of-way, if that private easement grants a superior vested right. This obligation exists whether or not the provider has obtained an excavation permit.
5. Protect Structures: In connection with the construction, maintenance, repair, upgrade or removal of the system, a provider shall, at its own cost and expense, protect any and all existing structures belonging to the City and all designated landmarks, as well as all other structures within any designated landmark district. A provider shall obtain the prior written consent of the City to alter any water main, power facility, sewerage or drainage system, or any other Municipal structure on, over or under the rights-of-way of the City required because of the presence of the system. Any such alteration shall be made by the City or its designee on a reimbursable basis. A provider agrees that it shall be liable for the costs incurred by the City to replace or repair and restore to its prior condition in a manner as may be reasonably specified by the City, any Municipal structure or any other rights-of-way of the City involved in the construction, maintenance, repair, upgrade or removal of the system that may become disturbed or damaged as a result of any work thereon by or on behalf of a provider pursuant to the franchise.
6. No Obstruction: In connection with the construction, maintenance, upgrade, repair or removal of the system, a provider shall not unreasonably obstruct the rights-of-way of fixed guide way systems, railways, passenger travel, or other traffic to, from or within the City without the prior consent of the appropriate authorities.
7. Safety Precautions: A provider shall, at its own cost and expense, undertake all necessary and appropriate efforts to prevent accidents at its work sites, including the placing and maintenance of proper guards, fences, barricades, security personnel and suitable and sufficient lighting, and such other requirements prescribed by OSHA and Utah OSHA. A provider shall comply with all applicable Federal, State and local requirements including but not limited to the National Electric Safety Code.

Upon doing so, the City shall submit to such a provider an itemized statement of the cost for repairing and restoring the rights-of-ways intruded upon. The provider shall, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the statement, pay to the City the entire amount thereof.

11. Location To Minimize Interference: All lines, poles, towers, pipes, conduits, equipment, property, structures, and assets of the provider shall be located so as to cause minimum interference with the use of streets, alleys, rights-of-way, and public property by others and shall cause minimum interference with the rights of owners of property that abuts any of said streets, alleys, rights-of-way, or public property.
12. Repair Of Damage By Provider: If during the course of work on its facilities, the provider causes damage to or alters any street, alley, right-of-way, sidewalk, utility, public improvement, or other public or private property, the provider (at its own cost and expense and in a manner approved by the City) shall promptly and completely replace and restore such street, alley, right-of-way, sidewalk, utility, public improvement or other public or private property in accordance with applicable City ordinances, policies, and regulations relating to repair work of similar character to the reasonable satisfaction of the City.
