Cedar Rapids Cable Bill Sparks Rate Deregulation Debate
The House proposes deregulation restricting city control over rates and franchise terms while limiting cross-ownership by local media. Cedar Rapids officials dispute the plan to curb rate oversight and keep public protections. Cox Cable backs the measure citing investments and renewal uncertainty, while city officials warn deregulation could raise consumer costs and reduce local oversight. The bill also seeks channel leasing openness and ownership restrictions, though Cox Cable Cedar Rapids with 26 channels is not immediately affected.
