  • Except as prohibited by federal law, a franchisee shall be subject to penalties and forfeitures under the city's Code of Ordinances and under its franchise agreement, and its request for approval of a rate may be denied if it:

    (A)

    Knowingly submits false or fraudulent information to the city in connection with any rate proceeding;

    (B)

    Fails to comply with any lawful order or request of the city, including, but not limited to, a request for information or an order setting rates; or
