 | VRADs etc. Wait a minute... If you have a VRAD or the such like sitting on your property then why shouldn't you be allowed to collect a "Tax".  |

| reply to George Kidd What's worse than not collecting? Being forced to pay this new tax, passed on to you by the telco, for equipment/poles that sit on your property!
Sadly, I think this is exactly what will happen. -- My Site |

If it's not in the utility easement, and you don't take service from the company who placed it, you can. It's called "rent." If it's in the utility easement you (or the person who owned the land before you) granted them the right to place whatever equipment they need in said easement.
If you do take said company's service, you agreed to allow them to place whatever equipment is necessary to provide you service upon your premises without charge to them. It's in the tariff. (You even agreed to supply them electricity, if required, but they don't have the balls to go that far for devices that are servicing others as well)
I've known a few people who had SLCs placed on their property in the past, and they get monthly rent. Of course, they live out in the middle of nowhere and they didn't have room to place the SLC, cross connect boxes, and whatever else in the road easement. -- It's wierdo, not weirdo. Yes, I know that's not the 'proper' spelling of the similar english language word.  |
