We propose to dedicate these <br />funds for technology improvements to Channel 16 and the Website. The attached survey informations <br />shows that the increase will bring the city in line with other communities. <br /> <br />For comparative purposes, in the current fiscal year we are projecting $114,602 from this revenue source, <br />which would have been $190,503 had the 5% fee been in effect, amounting to $76,201 in additional <br />revenue. <br /> <br />Per Charter requirements, this is the Second Reading of this Amendment. <br /> <br />Action Required by Council: <br /> <br />Grant authority to provide written notice of increase from 3% to 5% for franchise fee to Time Warner <br />Communications. <br /> <br />Aporoved for City Council Agenda <br /> <br /> <br />/b~~/~ -3 <br /> <br />Date /' <br />
