4.20.114.23   Franchisee to maintain system in conformance with FCC signal leakage rules.
A franchisee shall construct, operate and maintain the system in conformance with signal leakage requirements of the FCC’s rules to prevent interference with the transmission or reception of over-the-air broadcast signals by television receivers, cable services and other communication services. A franchisee shall not interfere with the ability of any subscriber to utilize his or her television receiver, computer, or other communication device for any lawful purpose. In the absence of federal or state rules to the contrary, the connection of any cable input selector device, converter or other device to a subscriber’s terminal shall not be considered as interference with the subscriber’s ability to utilize his or her television receiver, computer, or other communication device. However, the impairment of certain television receiver or VCR functions caused by such device (such as picture in-picture and the ability to view one premium channel while recording another) shall be deemed to constitute such interference, if violative of 47 C.F.R. Section 76.630 (compatibility with consumer electronics equipment). Failure to meet the requirements of this section will result in foreseeable damages in an amount specified in the section titled “liquidated damages.” (Ord. 205 § 3, 2001)
