The Planning Commission held a second public hearing on April 13, 2006 and approved by a vote of 5 to 3 a resolution, which forwards a recommendation of support with six conditions of approval. The split vote was not based upon lack of support for the screen wall, but its design. The revised elevation does incorporate that recommendation. The revised PUD submittal incorporates three of the six conditions of the Planning Commission. Mayor Sisk requested an Applicant presentation. Tom Farlow, APD Engineering, Rochester, New York, stated he was available to answer Council's questions. Mayor Sisk asked if the applicant supports the three remaining conditions. Mr. Farlow confirmed they supported the conditions. MOTION: Council member Marsella moved to approve Resolution No. 21, Series 2006, seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Brown. Roll call vote was taken. The motion carried by a vote of 6-0. Absent: Council member Sackett. RESOLUTION No. 22, SERIES 2006 - A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF LOUISVILLE, COLORADO AND CITIZENS FOR COMMUNITY TV, A COLORADO NONPROFIT CORPORATION, FOR PUBLIC ACCESS CABLE TELEVISION MANAGEMENT Assistant City Manager Balser reported the City has obtained a copy of Denver's contract with their designated public access provider and incorporated additional relevant language in to the contract. CCTV representatives have asked for removal of the requirement that the CCTV Board of Directors be controlled by and primarily comprised of Louisville residents and suggested the Board residency requirements reflect the percentage of the municipality's PEG equipment resource contribution. Such language is not currently in Section 4, B of the contract. CCTV requested the contract include language, which would allow non-access users to rent equipment in order to generate income for the center's operational costs. This language has not been included in the contract. Municipal Services Associates, Inc. has estimated the government access needs will cost approximately $50,000 to $56,000 dollars. Staff recommends an allocation of $60,000 for government access equipment needs. Based on discussion at the last City Council meeting the contract makes no reference to a franchise fee distribution. These issues are not addressed in the contract itself, but rather subject to the budget process and annual appropriations.
