1. If that ordinance would alter the terms of any existing franchise agreement between the city or county and a public utility.
2. That applies to any public utility which does not derive revenue from customers located within the jurisdiction of the city or county.
3. If, after the adoption of the ordinance:
(a) Any part of a fee to which the ordinance applies will be based upon any revenue of a public utility other than its revenue from customers located within the jurisdiction of the city or county.
(b) The total cumulative amount of all fees the city or county imposes upon a public utility to which the ordinance applies will exceed:
(1) Except as otherwise provided in subparagraph (2), 5 percent of the utility’s gross revenue from customers located within the jurisdiction of the city or county.
