den of proving that its schedule of rates

dated filed with the Township a FCC
Form 1210 requesting an increase in

may begin using Form 1210 on July 1.

ond quarter of 1994," which instructions
cable operators are required to follow:

gram ming contained one (1) home
shopping channel: and
WHEREAS, In August 1993, Consoli
dated added eight (8) additional shop
ping channels, for a total of nine (9) such
channels: and
WHEREAS, the preceding actions were
taken in anticipation of rate regulation to
Increase Consolidated's revenues by in
creasing the number of regulated chan
nels times wrucn the maximum
permitted rate would be multiplied, while
not mcreasmq Consolidated's costs, due
to the fact that home shoppmq networks
pay cable operators to carry their pro
gramming; and
WHEREAS, the FCC rules provide for
quarterly adjustments' of so-called exter
nal costs and that such costs are re
duced by a number of factors. including
revenues which cable companies re
ceive from home shoppmq networks.

solidated's First Form 1210 filing, the

formation home sho ping re nu s re

rate revi9'N process and does not need
to b provid d," bee us such reve
nues and other consideration is not used
to reduce the cost of other services in
calculating extern I cost pass through"; I
II :�EREAS. Consolidated is incorrect in
its interpretation of the FCC rules and it
cannot benefit at the expense of sub
I scribers by using nine (9) home shop
I ping channels to significantly increase its
regulated rates b charging the maxi-
mum permitted rate for each such chan
nel, while at the same time refUSing to
offset against such rates the revenues it
receives from such channels; and
WHEREAS, on July 28, 1994, the Town

of Consolidated to supply the necessary
data concerning its nine (9) home shop
ping channels, the Township cannot de
termine whether or to what extent the
