FROM: Todd Gerhardt, Assistant City Manager (,� '
1 DATE: March 3, 1993
1 SUBJ: Request for Program Change, Triax Cablevision, Richard Finch
1 Attached you will find a letter from Richard Finch, Regional Manager for Triax Cablevision.
Mr. Finch is requesting a program change for VHF Channel 6 (regional programming) due to the
poor quality being broadcasted and because it does not meet the FCC's technical standards.
1 Triax is proposing to replace the regional programming channel with C -Span II, which airs the
United States Senate meetings. The new program which will replace the existing Channel 6 must
provide regional information to the public.
I I would recommend that the City Council question Mr. Finch as to what other regional program
I options are available besides C -Span II.
Staff has also asked Mr. Finch to be prepared to answer any questions the Council may have
I regarding Triax's operation, i.e. rates, timing of installation, programming, etc. I have also
attached a recent survey that city staff conducted in an attempt to compare Triax's rates to other
cable companies. It is difficult to compare cable companies' programs /rates because of how they
1 package their products.
RECOMMENDATION
1 Staff recommends that no action occur at this time, with staff to explore options to retain Channel
6 as well as to explore questions presented by the Council.

Mr. Todd Gerhardt
City of Chanhassen
P.O. Box 147
Chanhassen, MN 55317
Dear Mr. Gerhardt:
The purpose of this letter is to request a modification of
the Cable Television Franchise Ordinance, Article III,
Section 8, Regional Channel 6.
Article III, Section 8 of the Ordinance requires that "the
standard VHF Channel 6 is hereby designated for uniform
regional channel usage. However, until the regional
channel becomes operational, Grantee may utilize the
standard VHF Channel 6 as it deems appropriate." Although
I Triax has taken numerous steps both to receive and
subsequently improve the quality of the regional channel
signal, the signal quality remains unacceptable and
violates FCC technical standards. Consequently, Triax
would propose that C -SPAN II be substituted for the
regional channel signal until such time as it is
technically and economically feasible to carry a regional
I channel signal which complies with FCC technical signal
quality standards.
I Federal law allows cable operators to obtain modifications
of service requirements from the franchising authority
. if the cable operator demonstrates that the mix and
quality of services required by the franchise at the time
I it was granted will be maintained after such
modification." Carriage of C -SPAN II maintains public
affairs programming on Channel 6, expands the hours of
I public affairs programming available to subscribers,
offers a superior signal from a technical perspective,
I

and provides top quality programming from the United
States Senate. Therefore, both the mix and quality of
services required by the Franchise will be maintained
after this modification, if not enhanced.
I appreciate your consideration of this request, and would
like to attend the February 22, 1993, City Council meeting
to answer any questions you may have on this request. In
addition, I would like to update you on our plans for
1993.
Sincerely, ,
//
