A. 
The County shall exercise appropriate regulatory authority under the provisions of this chapter and applicable law. This authority shall be vested in the County Council and administered through the County Manager or his designee in order to provide day-to-day administration and enforcement of the provisions of this chapter and any franchise granted hereunder, and to carry out the County's responsibilities with regard to cable communications.
B. 
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this chapter to the contrary, the grantee shall at all times comply with all applicable laws and regulations of the local, state and federal government. In the event that any actions of the state or federal government or any agency thereof, or any court of competent jurisdiction upon final adjudication, substantially reduce in any way the power or authority of the County under this chapter or the franchise, or if in compliance with any local, state, or federal law or regulation, the grantee finds conflict with the terms of this chapter, the franchise, or any law or regulation of the County, then as soon as possible following knowledge thereof, the grantee shall notify the County of the point of conflict believed to exist between such law or regulation and the laws or regulations of the County, this chapter and the franchise. The County, at its option, may notify the grantee that it wishes to negotiate those provisions which are affected in any way by such modification in regulations or statutory authority. Thereafter, the grantee shall negotiate in good faith with the County in the development of alternate provisions which shall fairly restore the County to the maximum level of authority and power permitted by law.
C. 
The County reserves the right to exercise the maximum plenary authority, as may at any time be lawfully permissible, to regulate the cable communications system, the franchise and the grantee. Should applicable legislative, judicial or regulatory authorities at any time permit regulation not presently permitted to the County, the County may, after 30 days' written notice to the grantee, engage in any such additional regulation as may then be permissible, whether or not contemplated by this chapter or the franchise, including, without limitation, regulation regarding franchise fees, taxes, programming, rates charged to subscribers and users, consumer protection, or any other matter.
A. 
The grantee shall file with the County, 30 days prior to any change, schedules which shall describe all services offered, all rates and charges of any kind, and all terms and conditions relating thereto.
B. 
The grantee shall establish rates that are nondiscriminatory within the same general class of subscribers which must be applied fairly and uniformly to all subscribers in the franchise area for all services. Nothing contained herein shall prohibit the grantee from offering:
(1) 
Discounts to commercial and multiple-family dwelling subscribers billed on a bulk basis;
(2) 
Promotional discounts; or
(3) 
Reduced installation rates for subscribers who have multiple services.
A. 
The County and the grantee shall, at the discretion of the County, hold scheduled performance evaluation sessions annually. All such evaluation sessions shall be open to the public.
B. 
Special evaluation sessions may be held at any time during the term of the franchise at the request of the County.
C. 
During the review and evaluation by the County, the grantee shall fully cooperate with the County and shall provide such information and documents as the County may need to reasonably perform its review.
