  • TND Ordinance
    PARISH OF ASCENSION TRADITIONAL NEIGHBORHOOD DEVELOPMENT ZONING DISTRICT Section 1.01 Purpose. The purpose of a Traditional Neighborhood Development Zoning District (“TND District”) is to encourage mixed-Use, compact Development and facilitate the efficient use of services. A TND District diversifies and integrates land Uses within close proximity to each other, and it provides for the daily recreational and shopping needs of the residents. A TND District is a sustainable, long- term community that provides economic opportunity and environmental and social equity for the residents. This ordinance’s intent is to encourage its use by providing incentives, rather than prohibiting conventional Development. A Traditional Neighborhood Development: a. Is designed for the human scale; b. Provides a mix of Uses, including residential, commercial, civic, and open space Uses in close proximity to one another within the neighborhood; c. Provides a variety of housing types, and sizes to accommodate households of all ages, sizes, and incomes; d. Includes residences, shops, workplaces and civic Buildings interwoven within the neighborhood, all within close proximity; e. Incorporates a system of relatively narrow, interconnected Streets, Roads, Drives, and other Thoroughfare Types with sidewalks and bikeways, that offer multiple routes for motorists, pedestrians, and bicyclists and provides for the connections of those Thoroughfare Types to existing and future Developments; Includes compatibility of Buildings and other improvements as determined by their arrangement, bulk, form, character and landscaping to establish a livable, harmonious and diverse environment; f. Incorporates environmental features into the design; g. Coordinates transportation systems with a hierarchy of appropriately designed facilities for pedestrians, bicycles, and vehicles; h.

  • Chafter9 Other Issues A. Cross-Media Ownership
    CHAFTER9 OTHER ISSUES A. CROSS-MEDIA OWNERSHIP RULES 9.1 Prior to 1987 there were restrictions on the number of commercial radio and television licences a person could own. There were no restrictions on cross-ownerships with newspapers. Cross-ownership restrictions which limit common ownership of newspapers and commercial radio and television were introduced for the first time by the Government in 1987 as an integral part of a legislative package which repealed the 32 year old two station rule governing the ownership of commercial television and replaced it with an audience reach rule. The Government retained the limits on the extent of radio ownership as well as the 'one-to-a-market1 rule. The latter prohibited multiple ownership of radio or television licences in any service area. 9.2 The two station rule prevented a person from holding a prescribed interest in more than two commercial television licences throughout Australia. This rule equated an interest in stations in Sydney and Melbourne with an interest in stations in Mildura and Wagga despite massive differences in the population of their service areas. The audience reach rule allows persons to hold prescribed interests in any number of 295 commercial television licences as long as the combined population of their service areas does not exceed 60 per cent of the Australian population. 9.3 In explaining the case for cross-media ownership restrictions, the then Minister for Communications, the Hon. Michael Duffy MP, said in his second reading speech on the Broadcasting (Ownership and Control) BUI IWthat: If competition is to be enhanced, an essential part of the reform program is to limit cross-media ownership, that is, the common ownership of television-newspaper and television-radio interests within the television services areas.

  • Productivity Commission Inquiry Into Broadcasting
    PRODUCTIVITY COMMISSION INQUIRY INTO BROADCASTING SUBMISSION FROM THE FEDERATION OF AUSTRALIAN COMMERCIAL TELEVISION STATIONS MAY 1999 SUMMARY OF SUBMISSION Governments everywhere in the world have intervened in the broadcasting industry to secure a range of economic, social and cultural objectives. Australian Governments have done so for many reasons. Some of these reasons are now of diminishing relevance, while others remain highly relevant on social, cultural or economic grounds. This submission assesses key broadcasting policies, in order to ascertain whether the public benefits outweigh the costs to the community of the restrictions imposed on the industry, or on competition within the industry. Currently, Australia has one of the best and most comprehensive free-to-air broadcasting systems in the world. It offers diversity of programming, quality, national coverage and local services, and programs reflecting our identity as Australians. This has been achieved through a structure of broadcasting developed over many decades. It involves a hybrid system of advertiser-funded and government-funded broadcasters. The advertiser-funded commercial free-to-air services are the predominant element in the system. These locally-licensed services are highly competitive and efficient. They provide much more local service and locally-produced programming - the costliest service components - than would be expected in a country with such a small population. They are able to do this because of long-standing (though recently reviewed) regulatory limits on the number of commercial services in each licence area. These impressive (and costly) service levels are already proving hard to maintain in the face of limited advertising growth and expanding competition from other media.

  • Memorandum To
    MEMORANDUM TO: File No. S7-20-08; Securities Exchange Act Release No. 58190 FROM: Division of Trading and Markets DATE: July 31, 2008 RE: Meeting on Securities Exchange Act Release No. 34-58166 On July 22, 2008, staff of the Division of Trading and Markets met with representatives from Overstock.com, Inc. to discuss Regulation SHO, “naked” short selling, and the Commission’s recent Emergency Order, (Securities Exchange Act Release No. 34- 58166). Overstock followed-up this meeting by sending an e-mail attaching a letter which is included as an attachment to this Memorandum. July 23, 2008 Subject: Follow-up on July 22 Meeting Dr. Sirri et al.: I thank you for meeting with Ken Salomon, John Welborn and me yesterday afternoon to discuss Reg SHO, naked short selling and the SEC's recent emergency order. As a follow-up, I want to emphasize the following points: 1. OSTK continues to believe that it is critical that the SEC extend the pre-borrow requirement of the emergency order to the entire market, not just the 19 select companies. OSTK requests that the SEC promptly undertake swift rulemaking so that this protection applies fairly across the market. 2. OSTK continues to support the prompt and full elimination of the option market maker exception, an exception that swallows up the good intentions of Reg SHO. During yesterday's meeting, we discussed the relationship between the markets for equities and their corresponding derivatives (including listed options). You stated that options market makers enjoy an exception from the Reg SHO requirement that they locate and/or deliver shares when hedging against options positions.
