| Re: Verizon Reaches Agreement with Montgomery County Wow...a treasure trove of information. It looks like the county got all its ANALOG PEGs (and more?); no doubt at the expense of programming the more people would watch.
Rockville is included in the franchise agreement, but VZ won't work there due to the right-of-way fees, and the franchise contains an exception such that it could never happen if VZ can't reach agreement with Rockville re: ROW fees.
And Gaithersburg is the big void in the middle of the map (Exhibit B, separate PDF)... | |

| Re: Verizon Reaches Agreement with Montgomery County Wrong about Gaithersburg. Their PEG is on the list of 13. I forgot that the county negotiates on their behalf. But what is up with the bullseye "Contiguous Service Area"? Looks like Gaithersburg designated a "ring" that must be 100% served before or at the time Verizon offers service anywhere else in the area. (?) | |

3 edits | Re: Verizon Reaches Agreement with Montgomery County RKVLMDMR (Montrose Road) is middle. I guess it's time to update the map. Looks like SLSPMDSS and CHCHMDBE are in the "middle" area too.
From the agreement:
3.1.2. Middle Service Area: In the Middle Service Area, the Franchisee shall offer Cable Service to significant numbers of Subscribers in residential areas within three (3) years of the Effective Date of this Franchise, and to all residences within the Middle Service Area at which such service is requested within five (5) years of the Effective Date of the Franchise, except as specified in Section 3.2. If Franchisee is unable to reach agreement with the City of Rockville to obtain construction permits for the FTTP network under reasonable terms and conditions, as determined by Franchisee, by December 31, 2007, these timeframes shall not apply to Franchisee’s provision of Cable Service to residences served by Franchisee’s Rockville and Montrose wire centers. Instead, Franchisee shall offer Cable Service to all residences served by the Rockville and Montrose wire centers at which such service is requested within four (4) years of obtaining construction permits for the FTTP network from the City of Rockville, except as specified in Section 3.2. | |
