Jason (Jay) Spillum resigns from the city Cable Review Board presidency position.



Can you figure out why?   I can.  Last month, long time member Norman Sandquist resigned.  No coincidence.   They don't want to follow their requirement to oversee GRA TV policies and procedures, and the operation of the public access television.   Shame on both of them.   Who is next?   The remaining members are Al Sandquist and Thor Lindquist.   The only other member is a requirement of the Cable Review Board, and that is that they have  a council member on the board.  That is currently Leif Hanson, because former councilor Loren Boyum resigned BEFORE he was not re-elected.  You will be hearing a lot more on this in the very near future.  It ain't over yet. City is still violating Minnesota State Statute 238 which requires cable operators within a municipality to have a Franchise Agreement.   Little Falls has not had a Franchise Agreement with Spectrum/New Charter since May 2015 when it expired.   Shame on the city, it's leaders, attorneys, staff and customers for not demanding this be rectified.
