The city shall not regulate the grantee's rates for any class of cable service during the time period and to the extent that rate regulation is prohibited under the federal or state law. The city reserves the right to institute any rate regulation system permitted by law. The city may adopt such a rate regulation system by amendment to the franchise ordinance, provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed a waiver of the grantee's rights to challenge any rate regulation system adopted by the city on constitutional or other applicable grounds.
