"the 5% franchise fee is simply being pushed through to consumers"
And how is this different from any telco or cableco in the country??
Check your bills from AT&T, TW, Comcast, etc and see if there isn't some sort of fee on it that goes to cover the franchise fee. |

There is no franchise fee for telephone and internet, just the tv so far.
Check your bills. |

| Sorry, misread the bill, however that doesn't change that the franchise fees are passed thru from my ex-provider, TW. I guess this is what I thought was the franchise fee on my bill:
Municipal Charge 1.25
Anyway, another fee that gets passed along just like every other fee put on the telco and cableco.
