Methodist Church at 1001 West Colfax Avenue, supported the
move of the Carriage House to 111 N. St. Paul's Place. Mr.
William Ellison, 1008 West Colfax Avenue, asked about the
intended usage of the property. Mr. Jeffrey Gibboney, Director
of Southold Heritage Foundation, explained that Mr. Mullins
was the owner of the property at 1005 West Washington Street
and the Carriage House would be moved to the rear of that
property fronting on St. Paul's Place. Mr. Gibboney stated
that a construction loan had been made available to Mr. Mullins

requirement of the Bureau of Traffic and Lighting was that a pre

and, since LaSalle Street (U.S. 20) was being used, a State
Highway permit was necessary. Mrs. Oliver Parcher, 509 West

APPROVE RATE INCREASE (INDIANA CABLEVISION CORPORATION)
This was the date set for the public hearing on the proposed rate
increase of Indiana Cablevision Corporation. The Clerk tendered
proofs of publication of notice in the South Bend Tribune and
the Tri-County News which were found to be sufficient. It was
noted that a petition for the proposed rate increase had been
filed with the Board on June 7, 1982, for public hearing at this
time. Mr. William Moss, General Manager for Indiana Cablevision,
explained that Indiana Cablevision was proposing to increase its
$resent monthly fee for basic cable service to $10.95 from the
8.95 fee, effective September 1, 1982. Also proposed was an
increase in the monthly additional outlet fee to $4.95 from the
$2.50 monthly rate. He explained further that Cable Television
would be adding six new, full-time channels for its viewers for
a total of 18 channels. The new channels included:
Daytime and Modern Satellite Network designed and
programmed specifically for the woman of today.
Nickelodeon, the only TV channel devoted exclusively
to commercial -free programming for young people and
the only channel endorsed by the National Education
Association.
The Cable News Network, a full-time news channel.
The Financial News Network bringing up-to-the-minute
financial and business related news from both stock
exchanges and the business world.
The Weather Channel, the only 24-hour weather station
reporting weather on the national, regional and local
fronts.
The Music Channel, the first video radio station with
programming 24 hours with the music performed by the
original artists.
327
REGULAR MEETING JUNE 21 1982
WTBS, the largest.independent station in the
country with programming 24 hours a day.
The Cable Health Network, seven days a week,
24 hours a day.
Arts and CBS Cable offering symphonies, ballets,
Broadway plays and music festivals.
Mr. Moss stated that it has been 26 months since Cable TV had
asked for and been given an increase, and he added that the
company was experiencing a great inflationary period at this
time which necessitated the rate increase. Mrs. Oliver Parcher,
509 West Jefferson Street, stated that Cable TV was not available
for her and she asked what was being done to furnish cable service
to South Bend residents. Mr. Moss explained that overhead wires
and lines were not allowed in the downtown area and because of
this restriction, Cable TV could not be furnished. He stated
that his company was, however, working with Indiana Bell
Telephone Company in an effort to install cable underground
with its underground telephone conduit. He explained that this
would be the only way Cable TV could be provided the downtown
(� residents. He was hopeful this could be accomplished in the
near future. Mr. Hill asked how the proposed rate increases
compared to other cable systems in other cities. Mr. Moss
stated that Indiana Cablevision was offering its customers
all the channels as a part of basic service and, in other
cities, these extra channels were offered as a pay option and
the residents were charged for the channels. Mr. Kernan asked
if the rate increase affected Home Box Office and Showtime
programming. Mr. Moss stated that it did not. He also assured
the Board that the company proposed to hold these rates for a
24-month period with the feeling that another increase would
not be necessary before that time. Mr. Leszczynski stated that,
when Cable TV had come before the Board for a rate increase
the last time, the Board had received many complaints from
unsatisfied customers. He asked what sort of mechanism had
been developed to resolve these problems since the Board had
not been receiving any complaints for some time. Mr. Moss
stated that all complaints concerning service and lack of
service are responded to within 24 hours. He stated that
servicemen are available up to 10:00 p.m. every night, with
emergency service for entire areas available 24 hours a day.
He explained that the telephone is manned 24 hours a day for
receiving complaints. Mr. Leszczynski asked if the customers
would be required to obtain a converter for the new channels.
Mr. Moss stated that each Cable TV subscriber would need to
obtain a converter in order to receive cablevision. He
explained that the converters would be available after August
lst and the customers would be asked to pick up the converters
at a Cable store at no charge for self -installation. Mr. Moss
stated that, if a person was not able to pick up the converter
and install it, the company would do so. He stated that the
hook-up merely required screwing the converter wire into the
cable outlet on the television. Mr. Hill stated that it was
his impression that the number of service complaints received
by the Board had declined. He advised that, most of the time
when a complaint had been received in the past, it.was because
the individual was not able to get Cable TV in a particular
area. Mr. Hill asked how new cable service would be evaluated.
Mr. Moss stated that Indiana Cablevision was desirous of
providing cable to 97% of all homes in the franchise area. He
stated that, if a request for cable service is received in a
particular area, a pre -market survey would be conducted of
all homeowners to determine if there was a high enough interest
in hooking up to the cable. He stated that it was very expensive
to run the cable and, if the pre -market study indicated a good
response, the cable would be installed. He added that, by 1984,
it was hoped that less than 1% of all possible homes in the
franchise area would nQt be. -wired for cable acces•'sa Mr..Kernan
stated that it has been over a year since he had received a
complaint from a subscriber of Cable TV.

carried, the public hearing was closed. Mr. Kernan stated that
he was thankful to Indiana Cablevision for providing the Board
with additional information concerning the proposed rate increase.
He stated that it was very helpful in determining that the rate
increase was justified. Upon a motion made by Mr. Kernan,
seconded by Mr. Hill and carried, the proposed rate increase was
approved. Mr. Hill also expressed his appreciation to Mr. Moss
for providing the balance sheets and other supporting documenta-
tion needed for the Board to render its decision. Mr. Leszczynski
stated that the figures submitted to the Board substantiated the
need for a rate increase at this time.
