Hi Fidelity T. V. Cable System Co. <br />2. Peninsula Cable Television Corporation <br />Paul F. Kelly, attorney representing Hi Fidelity Cable <br />System Company, set forth details submitted in their <br />application as to their financial abaility and backing. <br />He stated franchise had been granted to this company by County <br />Board of Supervisors for areas outside and adjacent to City <br />and they would be immediately able to cover areas proposed in <br />their map, and asked their application be considered as <br />presented if decision to be made at this time. <br />Mayor Herkner questioned service being proposed for County and if it was to be <br />underground installation. Mr. Kelly advised underground servicing would be furnished <br />where utilities are underground, but where lines were above ground, these poles <br />would be used, as it would be economically not possible to do otherwise. <br />Councilman Rosselli further questioned costs of providing underground service and <br />costs to customers. Councilman Petersen felt it premature to consider making a <br />decision at this point and asked that Hi Fidelity T. V. Cable System Company be <br />allowed to present their brochure in form similar to that presented by other appli- <br />cant in order a more accurate comparison could be made. <br />Mr. Kelly agreed with Mr. Petersen's statements and assured <br />Council a brochure would be presented containing full facts <br />of their Company. <br />Council asked questions concerning type of service to be rendered, its value to <br />better reception by television users, and costs of service to customers. <br />Mr. Verne Laughton, representing Peninsula Cable Television <br />Corp. referred to their brochure describing their service <br />costs, area to be served and financial responsibility. Mr. <br />Laughton also described the public information channel which <br />would be of benefit to the City and described its possibilities <br />as to use. <br />After further discussion and questions concerning services proposed, Councilman <br />Petersen moved to table the applications until brochure received from Hi Fidelity <br />and report and investigation made by Staff, seconded by Councilman Keckley and <br />carried.
