**MEDIA BUREAU ACTION Released June 2, 2008**

PETITION SEEKING DECLARATORY RULING THAT RESTRICTIONS OF A HOMEOWNERS
ASSOCIATION IN KENTUCKY ARE PREEMPTED BY THE COMMISSION'S OVER-THE-AIR
RECEPTION DEVICES RULE

RESPONSES DUE: July 2, 2008

REPLIES DUE: July 17, 2008

The Commission has received a Petition for Declaratory Ruling from Mr.
William H. Culver, asking the Commission to determine whether antenna
restrictions of the Northridge Farms Homeowners Association Inc.
("Northridge Farms") restricting installation and placement of
television antennas and satellite dishes is preempted by Section 1.4000
of the Commission's rules (Over-the-Air Reception Devices Rule). The
Petition alleges that the Association's covenants, rules and regulations
violate the Commission's rule by establishing placement preferences and
height restrictions that prevent the Petitioner from obtaining a signal.
