(a) 
City Reservation.
The City expressly reserves the right to engage in the production of utility service to the extent permitted by law. The company agrees to negotiate in good faith long term contracts to purchase City-generated power made available for sale, consistent with PUC requirements. The company further agrees to offer transmission and delivery services to the City that are required by judicial, statutory and/or regulatory directive and that are comparable to the services offered to any other customer with similar generation facilities.
(b) 
Franchise Not to Limit City’s Rights.
Nothing in this franchise prohibits the City from becoming an aggregator of utility service or from selling utility service to customers should it be permissible under law.
