                             ORDER

   Adopted:  February 20, 1997          Released:   February 25, 1997

By the Chief, Financial Analysis and Compliance Division, Cable Services Bureau:

     1.   In this Order we consider complaints filed by Village of Hanover, Michigan, the local
franchise authority ("LFA") about the rate the above-captioned operator ("Operator") was charging
for its cable programming services tier, CPST, in the community referenced above.  On February
4, 1995, the LFA withdrew the CPST complaints that it had filed against the referenced Operator. 
Our records also show that Mr. James R. Kronberg filed a complaint against the Operator's basic tier
rate. Under the Communications Act, the Federal Communications Commission ("Commission")
regulates the CPST rates of cable systems not subject to effective competition upon the filing of a
valid complaint.  Our review reveals that the complaint filed by Mr. James R. Kronberg against the
Operator, challenges only the basic service tier rate and not the CPST rate.  Consequently, the
complaint does not trigger the Commission's jurisdiction.

     2.   Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED, pursuant to Section 0.321 of the Commission's rules,
47 C.F.R.  0.321, that the LFA's request to withdraw the FCC form 329 rate complaints against the
CPST rate charged by the Operator is GRANTED, and the review of the resulting rate justification
filings IS TERMINATED.

     3.   IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, pursuant to Section 0.321 of the Commission's rules,
47.C.F.R.  0.321, that the complaint filed by Mr. James R. Kronberg against the rate charged by
Operator in the franchise area referenced in the caption during the period under review, IS
DISMISSED.
