  • 2011 Municipal Franchise Fee Survey
    Louisiana Municipal Association 2011 Municipal Franchise Fee Survey 12/20/2011 Introduction The Louisiana Municipal Association would like to thank all the municipalities who participated in the 2011 Municipal Franchise Fee Survey. We were able to collect and compile information from 172 municipalities on electric, water, natural gas, cable television and other franchise fee. The survey is divided into three sections. The first section is the contact information for each participating municipality. The second section contains franchise fee information by municipality. And the last section contains the same franchise fee information; however it is categorized by company. This section includes graphs of the company market share in municipal franchise agreements. This survey can be found on the LMA website at www.lma.org under publications. We hope that you find this information useful. If you have any questions pertaining to the survey or wish to add or update your municipality’s franchise information, please contact us at the LMA office. Once again, we thank you for your cooperation in this endeavor. Franchise Fee Agreements Information L.R.S. 33:4401 gives municipalities the authority to grant franchises to telephone, telegraph, electric light, water, and gas systems to use streets and public right of ways. Such franchises are limited to a period of 60 years and shall not be exclusive. Although the governing body is granted authority by 33:4401 to set the terms of the franchise, individual municipalities may have more restrictive provisions in their charters, such as a requirement that the franchise agreement be voted on in a referendum election.

  • Fidelity Communications Brings 1 Gig Internet Speeds to Benton Subdivision
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Craig Montgomery Fidelity Communications Co. Tel: 573-468-1294 Fax: 573-468-7986 Email: c​[email protected] Fidelity Communications Brings 1 Gig Internet Speeds to Benton Subdivision Benton, AR, February 23, 2015—F​iber to the Home (FTTH) is the undisputed leader in Internet technology today, and Fidelity Communications is now offering it in a subdivision in Benton, AR. FTTH is the only way to provide virtually unlimited bandwidth to consumers and businesses, enabling better quality video, internet and voice services by running a fiber connection directly into the home. It replaces copper and coax infrastructure. Residents of Sterling Oaks subdivision in Benton are among the first in the state to have access to the types of Internet speeds that FTTH can provide. Fidelity is initially offering symmetrical speeds up to 1 Gigabit per second (or 1,000 Megabits per second) for just $80 a month. This means that customers will realize both download and upload speeds up to 1,000 Megs. Digital TV and phone service will be offered this summer, according to Arkansas General Manager Darrick Collier. “From a customer experience perspective, it is our goal to amaze these customers with Fidelity’s exceptional customer service and the next generation speed and reliability that a direct fiber connection provides,” Collier said. Sterling Oaks has 64 homes built and seven building lots still available. Collier is shooting for having service to 30 percent of the homes by the end of the year. Fidelity will be expanding its fiber build­out to other subdivisions in the coming months.
