City Manager's report and recommendation read in which Council was advised of the two additional firms which had indicated their interest in submitting applications for a franchise, subsequent to the two applications which had been reviewed by the Council on February 13th. He advised a formal written application and accompanying brochure had been sub- mitted by the M & M Cable Company, 1606 Grant Avenue, Novato, Calif., which Staff had not yet analyzed completely, and that the Community Antenna TV Company, 734 Overland Way, San Jose, had also indicated an interest in sub- mitting an application, but for which a written proposal had not yet been received. City Manager recommended establishment of a cut-off date for receipt of addi- tional applications for twelve noon, Wednesday, March 1, and submission of analysis to Council for their consideration on March 6th, together with suitable agreement containing the conditions of the franchise, including pro- visions for rate analyses, performance bond, specific system completion date, etc. Councilman Rosselli moved this be placed on Council Agenda of March 6th and cut-off date for receiving applications be set for March 1st as recommended by Staff, seconded by Councilman Petersen.

Councilman Bury expressed concern on procedure and also questioned whether original applicants needed more time to amend their proposals, if they wished to do so. Councilman Granger asked the maker to amend the motion to continue this matter for one week in order additional bid could be submitted and thereby insure City of getting best possible deal with analysis of additional bids. Maker and second of original motion declined to amend their motion. Councilman Henderson questioned possibility of starting all over again on pro- cedures for submittal of proposals for serving City with a CATV system and
