Did Google Fiber use a municipal cable franchise agreement?
Also, doesn't the FCC have the power in certain states to regulate pole attachment rates?
So, where I live, on one side of the street, the electric company owns the poles, on the other side of the street, the phone company owns the poles. The franchise agreement does not have anything about payments to support public access TV, nor anything PEG related.
In a neighboring municipality, the municipality owns the the electric company and thus the poles.
I believe some of the original AT&T telegraph poles were placed by the Union army after the Civil War?
