Sec. 8-11. - Subscriber rates and charges.

A licensee may make a reasonable charge to subscribers for the installation of or connection to its CATV system and may charge reasonable fixed monthly charges for the providing of such service. A schedule showing such installation and connection charges and monthly service charges shall be filed with the licensee's application for a license. Said schedule of charges must be approved by the board before such fees and charges may be collected. Each licensee shall annually thereafter file a current schedule of installation and connection charges and monthly service charges. Such filing shall be made at the same time and in the same manner as the filing of financial statements required pursuant to this chapter. No increase in rates or other charges to subscribers shall be made without

the prior written approval of the board of supervisors. The filing of annual schedules of installation and connection charges and monthly service charges pursuant to this section shall not be deemed to be authority to increase such charges unless prior written approval has been obtained from the board of supervisors.

No license granted under the provisions of this chapter shall be construed as a permit or license to transmit any special program or event for which a separate and distinct charge is made to the subscriber in the manner commonly known and referred to as "pay television" and no licensee shall directly or indirectly install, maintain or operate on any television set, a coin box, or any other device or means for collection of money for individual programs.
