Request to Cancel December 27, 2011 Study Session for Lack of Quorum PUBLIC COMMENTS ON ITEMS NOT ON THE AGENDA Alan Sobel, 1408 Kennedy Avenue, Louisville, CO continued the filibuster he began on April 6, 2010, regarding Comcast Corporation, the City of Louisville and the GMTC and his belief they work together to protect the interests of Comcast Cable Television and not those of the Louisville citizens. He volunteered for the Louisville Public Access station and observed the workings of the City with respect to cable television. He felt a growing and thriving public access station was dismantled and the equipment given to a private school in Lafayette. He felt the City gave the Franchise Agreement to Comcast without any input from the citizens and City officials remain silent when presented with evidence of Comcast's predatory actions. He stood in witness to the City of Louisville's practice to represent the interest of Comcast Cable Television. Markiah Friedman, 1286 Doric Drive, Lafayette, CO, Vice-Chair of the CCTV Board of Directors reported on the new studio in Lafayette. He noted through a cooperative agreement, all rent and utilities are paid by the school. He explained the last item to be compliant to their Charter is to appoint Louisville residents to the Board of Directors. They have an Advisory Board made up primarily of Louisville residents, who started the access station. He felt they have made a lot of progress in serving Louisville.
