II. BUSINESS AGENDA
A. Time Warner Telecom Franchise Agreement
Staff is seeking full Council approval on an ordinance that will renew the Time Warner Telecom (TWTC)
franchise agreement with the City.
TWTC currently has a three-year non-exclusive franchise agreement with the City, Ordinance 2114, which
expires on March 15,2009, and allows managed voice, data networking, and broadband services. This 3-year
renewal has some changes to the utilities relocation requirements in Section 5E. The utility relocation section
has been updated to include more clear and concise requirements for relocation, which should reduce
problems in the field. TWTC currently has expanded into the Central Business District to Corporate Drive.
UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO FEBRUARY 23 COW FOR DISCUSSION.
