PUBLIC HEARING Ratcliff asked if there was any one present who wished to speak
GARLAND BYRD
TRAILER either for or against this proposal.
APPLICATION,
PETITION Edwin Cox presented a petition in opposition to the
FILED, PERMIT
DENIED placement of the trailer at 1020 Well Street and advised there was
nothing personal against Mr. Garland Byrd, but there was a matter of
principle involved. The petition was read by Mr. Cox, and filed with
the Council. The petition indicated that the signers were opposed to
the placement of the trailer on Well Street because they felt it
would devalue properties adjacent to and in the immediate area of the
trailer, which would be unfair to the property owners in the neighborhood,
and that the architectural motif of the neighborhood would be greatly
disturbed and distorted.
Parke C. Bogle, who advised he owns propert adjacent to
Lot 9 on which the trailer wo uld be placed, said he definitely opposed
the application.
Frederick Willis, who lies in the immediate neighborhood
opposed the application, stating he felt it would devalue properties in
the area.
December 15, 1981
Town Manager Coake reported Lot 9 of the Chaffin
Subdivision contains approximately 19,000 sq. ft., is located in
an R-1 Residential Zone, and water and sewer is available. The lot
is approximately 10 feet higher in elevation than the houses located
on Newbern Road, which would put the bottom of the trailer at window
level of the houses. Mr. Coake advised that property owners in the
vicinity were contacted and there were five who objected - their
GARLAND main reason that it would devalue their property - and one had no
TRAILER
APPLICATIONobjection, and one expressed regrets but did not object. Notices
DENIED
were mailed to those property owners who were not contacted in
person.
Councilman Boyd stated that in view of the opposition
expressed at the meeting and those pointed out by Town Manager Coake,
moved that the application of Garland Byrd to palce a trailer at 1020
Well Street be denied. Motion was seconded by Councilman Neblett,
and carried on the following vote:

Mayor Ratcliffe welcomed T. J. McCarthy, Jr., Attorney
for Cablentertainment of Virginia, and William F. Randles, Vice-Presic$ent
of that Corporation. Councilman Boyd advised he had received complaints
RANDLES from subscribers of the Pulaski CATV System, who felt the Cable company
EXPLAINS
TROUBLES WITH was not providing the services promised in March of this year, when a
CABLE TV
SYSTEM rate increase was granted; mainly: The Christian Broadcasting Network.
Mr. Boyd advised he had asked that it be placed on the agenda for this
meeting, along with the matter of interference by the County, which he
understood had been taken care of, but there was other interference
which the Cable office stated was a radio transmitter causing the
interf erence. Mr. Boyd also stated there were complaints about the
50C late charge on the statements from CATV when actually payment
for Cable TV service is paid a month in advance.
Mr. Randles stated the Company originally planned to
combine the 24-hour Christian Newark with Home Box Office (HBO) which
runs about 12 hours. CBN would have been on the air when HBO was not,

and equipment was ordered to do this; however, it was later
learned this could not be done, so the company would share
Christian Newtork with Channel 6, out of Bluefield, and equi~a-
ment was ordered to do thism but, Mr. Randles stated, his company
is at the mercy of the equipment manufacturers, and if they could
get this equipment, CBN could be available by the first of the year.
As for the advance billing, Mr. Randles stated this is tied up
with processing bills and the computer. The bills are from the
TV CABLE 20th of the month to the 20th of the month which is compatible with
CONTINUED
central billing systems, which also helped the company in con-
trolling its accounts receivables. Mr. Randles stated CBN will be
a service for the public, but it would be about thirty days bef ore
this could be worked out and movies would be on a 24-hr. basis. Mr.
Randles also stated that when Channel 13,out of Lynchburg, moves its
antenna, interference which customers are now experiencing will clear
up.
UTILITIES COMMITTEE
Councilman Johnston advised that the Utilities Committee
met and discussed the request of the Virginia Department of Health
that we develop a plan for disposal of sludge from out Sewage Treat-
