We are defined as quazi public utility and therefore have the power of eminent domain. I did it as an ilec a couple of times after we did things for a land owner and they reneged on the deal.

The reason they give prospective customers is permits. They say they got the permits to deploy in the ROW and utility easements but need permits to bury the drop cables to houses. Does this sound legit? I didn’t even realize you needed a permit to bury a cable in someone’s yard from their house to a handhole or flowerpot. Would this be a blanket permit to deploy in town, or a permit for each install? And could permitting really take 8 months? -- AF mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -- AF mailing list [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
