Telecommunication Consortium and authorize the Mayor and City Clerk to execute; seconded by
Alderman Tarulis.
Administrator Olson reported that he attended the cable consortium meeting two weeks ago and both
Plano and Sandwich are committed to continuing with the consortium. He said the resolution in the
packet allows the city to notify the consortium that it is rescinding the previous withdrawal from the
consortium pending the approval of an amendment to the bylaws allowing the city to remain in the
consortium on a month to month basis and not have to commit to a full year of membership. The month
to month membership would allow the city more time to make a decision as to whether the city would
like to remain in the consortium without requiring a full one-year commitment.
