OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
SANTA ANA, CALIFORNIA
May 4, 1981
The meeting was called to order by Mayor Bricken at 1:06 p.m., in Room 831,
City Hall, 20 Civic Center Plaza. Councilmembers present were John Acosta,
Daniel E. Griset, R. W. Luxembourger, J. Ogden Markel, Patricia McGuigan,
Alfred C. Serrato, and Mayor Gordon Bricken. Also present were City Manager
A. J. Wilson, City Attorney Edward J. Cooper, and Clerk of the Council
Janice C. Guy, as well as members of the press and representatives of Cable
TV firms and the Santa Aha Chamber of Commerce.
CATV TASKS The Mayor explained that he had
met with representatives of the
four cable television firms
currently under consideration by
the City of Santa Ana for a CATV franchise to clarify uncertainties regard-
ing the selection process, and that the purpose of this meeting was to
establish guidelines for proceeding in an orderly manner with the selection
process. The City Manager then distributed copies of a list of tasks rel-
ative to the selection process, which had been developed by the CATV
Technical Advisory Committee. Councilmembers discussed tasks numbered 1-5
on that list, and specified several modifications which they felt should
be included in the process, including, but not limited to, the need to
identify specific outputs for each task, a desire to personally interact
with the Technical Advisory Committee, and the necessity of identifying
a method for selection of the final candidate prior to the date for such
selection. The City Manager inquired as to what role the Council wished
be assigned the CATV firms in this process, and recommended they be treated
as "vendors" of any goods/service to the City. Council agreed to continue
discussion of the item on the regular May 4 agenda. ~ /~ ~
