  • A. 
    The Township acknowledges that, under the Federal Act, municipalities do not have the authority to regulate the rates the company charges subscribers for its services. Therefore, the Township will not regulate the rates the company may charge subscribers for its service; provided, however, that in the event the Federal Act and other applicable law hereinafter is amended to permit the exercise of regulatory power over rates by municipalities, the Township reserves the right to exercise the maximum power permitted by law.
    B. 
    The Township is desirous of obtaining reduced rates for senior citizens, disabled residents and other parties for whom reduced rates may currently be available or may be available during the term of this chapter. Therefore, if the company adopts reduced rates for senior citizens, disabled persons or other parties in the future in accordance with N.J.S.A. 48:5A-11.1 et seq. and the Federal Act or any other law or regulation, these special rates shall be offered to qualified Harmony residents.
