A public hearing was conducted on December 19, 1988, at 9:30 A.M. , with the following present: Commissioner Gene Brantner, Chairman Commissioner C.W. Kirby, Pro-Tem Commissioner Jacqueline Johnson Commissioner Gordon E. Lacy Commissioner Frank Yamaguchi Also present: Acting Clerk to the Board, Mary Reiff Assistant County Attorney, Bruce T. Barker The following business was transacted: I hereby certify that pursuant to a notice dated December 5, 1988, and duly published December 7, 1988, in the Platteville Herald, a public hearing was conducted to consider the request of Chartwell Cable of Colorado, Inc. , for a Cable Television Franchise. Bruce Barker, Assistant County Attorney, made this matter of record. Robert Briney, Vice President of Operations, came forward to represent the applicant. He explained that his company has purchased a private cable system which they wish to extend beyond the current limits. Mr. Barker said that he has examined this application and everything appears to be in order. Mr. Barker reviewed the standards which are to he considered. No public comment was offered concerning this application. Commissioner Lacy moved to approve this request. Commissioner Yamaguchi seconded the motion and it carried unanimously. The applicant had requested two variances: because they expect to have less than 500 subscribers, they asked to waive Section C requiring equipment for local production and presentation of Cable cast programs; and they requested 180 days to complete the system, rather than 30 as normally required. Mr. Briney explained that, under normal weather conditions, it would be almost impossible to complete the system in 30 days and even more difficult under winter weather conditions. Commissioner Johnson moved to grant the two variances, with the waiver of Section C being in effect only so long as there are less than 500 subscribers. Commissioner Lacy seconded the motion. No public comment was received concerning the motion which carried unanimously. This Certification was approved on the 21st day of December, 1988.

Notice for that hearing will be published approximately two weeks prior to the hearing date. I wish to confirm the proposed franchise area . It is my understanding that your cable system will originate in the River Valley Village Mobile Home Park located immediately to the south of State Highway 119 and to the west of Interstate Highway 25 in the Del Camino area. This also appears to be located in Section 10 , Township 2 North, Range 68 West of the 6th P.M. The cables will then extend from the Mobile Home Park easterly along Highway 119 (which them becomes Weld County Road 24) . The cables will go to the intersection of Weld County Road 24 and 15 , and then run south along WCR 15 to the Enchanted Hills Subdivision and the Casa Grande Estates Subdivision. Your service area will include these two Subdivisions. 8812.90 Robert J. Briney Page 2 November 30 , 1988 If the above-described area is incorrect, please let me know in writing as soon as possible .

MMEMORAnDU Wilk Board of To County Commissioners Date December 2 . 1988 COLORADO From Bruce T. Barker, Assistant County Attorney subject: Cable T.V. Franchise for Chartwell Cable of Colorado, Inc. An application for a cable T.V. franchise has been submitted to you by Chartwell Cable of Colorado, Inc. Chartwell operates out of Fort Collins, Colorado. The system area for which they are requesting the franchise will include a relatively small area of the County. The origination point will be from the River Valley Village Mobile Home Park at Del Camino. Chartwell' s cables will extend east along State Highway 119 (which then becomes Weld County Road 24) . The cables will then run south along WCR 15 to the Enchanted Hills and Casa Grande Estates Subdivisions. I have checked Chartwell ' s application carefully and have found no missing elements. Chartwell has also submitted the application fee of $500 .00. Attached hereto you will find a sheet with various standards for your determination in the hearing. Pursuant to the "Waiver of Requirements" section which was added to our Cable T.V. Ordinance by Ordinance No. 94-A, Chartwell has requested the following: a. A waiver of the requirement under "Company Services" in Ordinance 94 , Section C - Equipment for local production and presentation of cablecast programs. Chartwell apparently feels that the company cannot install such equipment until and unless they have 500 subscribers on the system. b. A waiver of the requirement found in "Construction Timetables" in Ordinance 94-B, Section B - Completion of the system within thirty days. Chartwell believes that it will need at least 180 days in order to complete the system. I believe that the requests for waivers by Chartwell are reasonable. The requirement of local production facilities may be difficult to obtain for that small a system. The thirty-day completion requirement is probably too short for any system. A longer period of time seems more reasonable; however, 180 days may be a little too long. The Board will need to make the following decisions at the hearing on the franchise: 1 . Whether to grant the franchise. 881.2PO Board of County Commissioners Page 2 December 2 , 1988 2 . Whether to waive the local production facility requirement. 3 . Whether to waive the thirty-day requirement and allow the applicant to have a full 180 days to complete the system. r Bruce T.
