A. In the event of one or more franchises being granted, the city may require that subsequent franchisees pay to the city an amount proportionally equal to costs contributed by the original franchisee. These costs may include but are not limited to such features as access and institutional network costs, bi-directional or equivalent cable installed to municipal buildings and similar expenses.

B. On the anniversary of the grant of each later awarded franchise, such subsequent franchisees shall pay to the city an amount proportional to the amount contributed by the original franchisee, based upon the number of subscribers held by such subsequent franchisees. Such payments will be based upon incremental increases in subscribers, if any. (Ord. 1708 § 1, 1997).
