Background/Discussion The City of Elk River is part of the Sherburne/Wright County Cable Commission with ten other cities and its purpose is as follows: to monitor the operation and activities of cable communications; to provide coordination of administration and enforcement of the franchises; to promote the development of locally produced cable programming; and to conduct other activities authorized by the joint powers agreement to insure equitable and reasonable rates and service levels for citizens of the ten member cities. The Commission meets about four times a year. According to the joint powers agreement, whenever there is a change in directors for cities it needs to be approved by resolution of the Council. Joan Schmidt represented Elk River but has since retired. Furthermore, the last resolution I could find listed David Flannery as the alternate director for Elk River; therefore, the resolution the Council is asked to adopt at tonight's meeting will update both appointments to the Commission.
