NOV 01983 <br />! PACE <br />Mr. Mahalick suggested that if the Board grants an <br />increase, they should get a promise from Jones Intercable of <br />better service and reception. <br />Attorney Brandenburg swore in Sebastian City Councilman <br />Richard Szeluga, 597 Lakeport Drive, wished to clarify that <br />the City of Sebastian has approved the copyright adjustment <br />rate increase contingent upon the County residents also <br />paying the same fee. <br />Chairman Bird called Burt Snell, Jack Nolen, and Bee <br />Scheeren, who stated they wished to pass as their questions <br />had been answered. <br />Chairman Bird asked if anyone else wished to speak. <br />There were none. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Scurlock, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Bowman, the Board <br />unanimously closed the Public Hearing. <br />Commissioner Scurlock felt the basic question before <br />the Board tonight was whether or not to keep Channel 17. <br />However, acting as the government agency that oversees cable <br />vision, he believed we also have a responsibility to <br />investigate timely service, reception, etc. He recalled <br />that before granting the previous rate increase, the Board <br />had come up to Sebastian on three different occasions and <br />believed at that time that there had been some improvement <br />in service. <br />MOTION WAS MADE by Commissioner Scurlock, <br />SECONDED by Commissioner Bowman, that the Board <br />grant Jones Intercable the rate increase to <br />offset the copyright adjustment fee. <br />8 <br />
