  • Executive Summary
    Meeting: Study session Meeting date: September 14, 2020 Written report: 7 Executive summary Title: Comcast franchise renewal update Recommended action: **Due to the COVID-19 emergency declaration, this item is considered essential business and is Categorized as Time-Sensitive** • The report is presented for information only. No action is required. Policy consideration: Is the progress on the franchise renewal in keeping with council expectations? Summary: The city’s current franchise agreement with Comcast expires in January 2021. Upon receipt of Comcast’s request to renew its cable franchise in the city, the city notified Comcast of its intent to conduct informal renewal negotiations in accordance with the federal Cable Act. To prepare for negotiations, the city evaluated Comcast’s past performance under the existing franchise and conducted a needs assessment to determine the future cable-related Public- Educational-Government (PEG) community needs and interests of the city. This is the criteria prescribed by the Cable Act. Following the conclusion of the needs assessment, the city’s cable franchise attorney developed a draft franchise agreement, which the city plans to submit to Comcast for consideration. Financial or budget considerations: The final franchise agreement will determine the franchise fee, based on a percentage of gross revenues derived from cable service and PEG (public- educational-government) capital funding to be received by the city over the next franchise term, expected to be 10 years. Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to creating opportunities to build social capital through community engagement. Supporting documents: Community needs assessment report and appendices October 28, 2019 council study session report Prepared by: Jacque Smith, communications and marketing manager Reviewed by: Clint Pires, chief information officer Brian Grogan, attorney at law, Moss & Barnett Approved by: Tom Harmening, city manager Study session meeting of Sept.

Supplementary Notes 1 16. Abstract An investigation is made of the feasibility of developing compact transmit antennas and/or other means to efficiently couple VLF to MF band radio energy between portable wireless communication units in coal mines. The completely wireless communication ranges between two portable radios equipped with practically-sized reference loop antennas in represen- tative coal mine environments are estimated. Antenna technology is assessed with respect to transmit moment, range, intrinsic safety, battery and wearability requirements to deter- mine the most suitable antenna types for use by miners.

    NTIA Report 05-432 INTERFERENCE PROTECTION CRITERIA Phase 1 - Compilation from Existing Sources technical report U.S. DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE National Telecommunications and Information Administration NTIA Report 05-432 INTERFERENCE PROTECTION CRITERIA Phase 1 - Compilation from Existing Sources Alakananda Paul Gerald Hurt Thomas Sullivan Gary Patrick Robert Sole Larry Brunson Cou-Way Wang Bernard Joiner Edward Drocella Contributors Suzette Williams Gentiana Saam U.S. Department of Commerce Carlos M. Guiterrez, Secretary Michael D. Gallagher, Assistant Secretary for Communications and Information October 2005 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) launched this two-phase study of interference protection criteria (IPC) in order to compile, explain and validate, modify or supplement the levels of protection from interference that are generally expected and provided for various radiocommunication systems. The study is an integral part of President Bush’s Spectrum Policy Initiative that was established in May 2003 to promote the development and implementation of a United States spectrum policy for the 21st century. The Secretary of Commerce then established a Federal Government Spectrum Task Force and initiated a series of public meetings to address improvements in policies affecting spectrum use by the Federal Government, State, and local governments, and the private sector. The recommendations resulting from these activities were included in a two-part series of reports released by the Secretary of Commerce in June 2004, under the title Spectrum Policy for the 21st Century - The Presidents Spectrum Policy Initiative. Based on the recommendations contained in these Reports, the President directed the federal agencies on November 30, 2004, to plan the implementation of the 24 recommendations contained in the Reports.
