Opinion
ZENOVICH, J.
This appeal questions the validity of county ordinances which purportedly granted indeterminate gas/electric franchises to respondent. Originally, appellant questioned the propriety of respondent’s method of calculating the “gross annual receipt” base from which franchise fees are taken. Subsequent to the filing of this appeal, however, the parties agreed to removing consideration of all issues relating to this claim. Thus, we only consider the contention about the validity of the perpetual franchise grants.
