4.20.123.3   City discretionary powers.
Should there be any significant change to the Communications Act of 1934 as amended or to the federal regulations promulgated thereunder, or to any other federal or state law, so as to expand the city’s discretionary, powers pertaining to cable service or other communication services, which expanded discretionary powers fall outside the purview of the city’s lawful exercise of constitutional powers, powers to protect good order and discipline, and protect the health, safety and welfare of the public, franchisee will be obligated to observe and follow any modifications to the ordinance codified in this title or the franchise agreement which the city may require or be authorized to require or otherwise secure with respect to such change. Significant changes include, by way of example and not by way of limitation, changes which allow or address the following subjects: municipal regulation of cable system programming; increased technical proficiency; local requirements for access channels and financial support of local access and/or origination; municipal acquisition of cable systems; permitted franchise fees and revenue; city services for seniors or the disabled; franchise renewal or transfer procedures; “life line,” or special reduced rate service; and definition of “effective competition” with the franchisee’s cable system.
