Conditions for amending a franchise are as follows.
(A) If the city orders the telecommunications provider to locate or relocate its telecommunications facilities in a public way not included in a previously granted franchise, the city shall grant an amendment without further application or additional fee.
(B) (1) A new application and amended franchise shall be required of any telecommunications provider that desires to provide a different type of service (e.g., cable, telephony, and the like) which was not included in a franchise previously granted by the city.
(2) A new application and amended franchise will not be required if a telecommunications provider adds new or enhanced services of the same type authorized by its existing franchise (e.g., a cable service provider offers digital music service as well as video, or a telephonic- service provider adds features like call waiting, call forwarding, or caller ID).
