The franchises described in BC 11.16.060 began on April 15, 1980, and are continuing seven-year franchises. That is, beginning on April 15 of each year, the franchise is renewed for one additional year, unless at least 30 days prior to March 15 of any year the Council notifies the franchisee in writing of intent to terminate the franchise. The franchise will terminate six years from the date of the notice of termination. The Council may alter, extend the term or reinstate continuing renewal with the mutual agreement with the franchisee. Nothing in this section restricts the City from suspending, modifying or revoking the franchise for cause under BC 11.16.090. [Ord. NS-2246, 2015; Ord. NS-1272, 1980]
