Comcast has asked Birchwood Village, Dellwood, Grant, Lake Elmo, Mahtomedi, North Saint Paul, Oakdale, Vadnais Heights, White Bear Lake, White Bear Township, and Willernie to renew the franchise that allows it to operate in those communities.

As part of the consideration of that request, the Ramsey Washington Counties Suburban Cable Commission (SCC) is reviewing Comcast’s past performance (including customer service performance) and identifying future, cable-related needs and interests that should be addressed in any renewal.

A draft report discussing past performance and identifying needs and interests has been prepared by SCC and is available for review and comment here. Public comments on the report, Comcast’s past performance, and future cable-related needs and interests can be submitted online at that link, or by writing to: SCC, 2460 East County Road F, White Bear Lake, Minnesota 55110.

A copy of the draft report is available for inspection at that address as well, Monday-Friday 8AM-4PM. Comments should be submitted electronically, or post-marked by October 1, 2017.
