814.07   INTERPRETATION AND APPLICATION OF CHAPTER; RULES AND REGULATIONS; COMPLIANCE.
   (a)   This chapter shall be construed in a manner consistent with all applicable Federal and State laws.
   (b)   In the event that the State or Federal government discontinues preemption in any area of cable communications over which it currently exercises jurisdiction in such manner as to expand rather than limit municipal regulatory authority, the grantor may, if it so elects, adopt rules and regulations in these areas to the extent permitted by law. The grantor shall notify the grantees of its intent to adopt rules and regulations in writing at least thirty days prior to the adoption of the rules and regulations.
   (c)   This chapter shall apply to all franchises granted or renewed after the effective date of this chapter.
   (d)   The grantee's rights are subject to the police powers of the Village to adopt and enforce ordinances necessary to the health, safety and welfare of the public. The grantee shall comply with all applicable general laws and ordinances enacted, or hereafter enacted, by the Village pursuant to that power or any other legally constituted governmental unit having lawful jurisdiction over the subject matter hereof.
   (e)   The grantee shall not be relieved of its obligation to comply with any of the provisions of this chapter or any franchise granted pursuant to this chapter by reason of any failure of the Village to enforce prompt compliance.
   (f)   This chapter and any franchise granted pursuant to this chapter shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Ohio.
