Re: Get the *F* out of the way. said by bigjimc:It is my town. It is my roads. I pay taxes and if you want to put anything in my right of way then you have to live by my rules. If you don't like. Leave. And if a business sets up shop in your town they pay taxes and such as well. They have just as much a say in how the town is run as you do.

Unless the owners are residents of the community, they have absolutely no say. If they don't like it, leave.
I will rephrase and say I am a voting, residential taxpayer in my town. |

And you go right ahead and tell these companies that when you don't get the latest and greatest broadband/video/phone offerings.

Utility lawyers began the battle yesterday over the $2.7 billion Verizon sale with a laundry list of questions about whether the small North Carolina company vying to buy Verizon's telephone service in Maine, New Hampshire and Vermont can handle running it.

I'm not complaining.
I am just saying. We own the land. There are a few state owned roads but not the last measured mile. I live in a rural part of a rural town and Verizon wired us for FIOS already. I want their TV service and all, I just want to make sure they pay the same as Comcast to do business in our town.
As far as their $39+ phone service...Pulease. This should be a $20 service no more plus its not always on...as their new commercials say. When the power goes out, so does your phone (after 4 or 5 hours).
I got into a beef with Verizon about my POTs line. I was loosing 48 volts across my line. They had to find me a new line all the way back to the switch (23,000 feet). It took three techs four days. No wonder they have been begging me to take fios on. |
