really have a strong issue with the ability <br />to have addressability. The major concerns <br />are the service and the day-to-day operations <br />such as down time. These issues have to be <br />addressed. If we cannot get the service that <br />the citizens say that they want from this <br />corporation then we need to a least look at <br />what other corporations are available to give <br />us the service the citizens want. <br />Sackett: Since I have been on council there have been <br />two issues that I have received numerous <br />phone calls over, the first one is what to do <br />with their trash and the second one has to do <br />with how trashy the cable company system is. <br />I have been disappointed with the response <br />that I have received from the cable company <br />and I think if the cable company is willing <br />to sit down with council and design a system <br />that is state of the art for our community, <br />I am quite happy to remain with Scripps <br />Howard. Our citizens can not take advantage <br />of state of the art technology, if the compa- <br />ny is willing to work with us and make the <br />changes necessary then let's work with them, <br />if not then we should take ever step possible <br />to change companies. Let's deal with serv- <br />ice, how soon will people get their cable <br />hooked up, when will the cables be buried and <br />let's deal with addressability. We need to <br />have an answer from the cable company, will <br />they be willing to work with us or not. If <br />not then we need to take the next steps to <br />make a change. <br />Davidson: In the our contract with Scripps Howard it <br />states that they require a state of the art <br />cable system. How does the company define <br />that? <br />Griffin: I think it is in the eye of the beholder. <br />We will work with the city on providing the <br />state of the art system and if off premise is <br />the way to go then we will work on installing <br />it here, but at the present time the experts <br />in the industry are not convinced that is the <br />way to go. <br />Davidson: I received a letter from a Mrs. Gerber who <br />has your cable service and requested two <br />additional lines but would use one box. She <br />was told that violated a FCC regulation. <br />Griffin: It could at some point do that, FCC has put <br />strict standards on the industry. <br />
