It is our pleasure to present the Rules, Regulations, and Specifications for Contractors, for the rehabilitation, construction, or reconstruction of homes that qualify for HCD housing assistance in the City of Orlando. It is important for the Contractors to know that a great deal of time and effort has been committed to ensuring that the Rules, Regulations, and Specifications for Contractors meet standard construction practices. This document applies to all Contractors on the Rotating Contractor List, applicants to the List, as well as all construction projects as a part of the Contract Documents. All Contractors providing services and/or materials are required to perform in accordance with the Rules, Regulations, and Specifications for Contractors on all housing rehabilitation, construction or reconstruction activities.

It seems very likely that Kushnick’s numbers are uncomfortably close to the truth.” Dr.

    Information Society Trends Issue number: 52 - (1.4.96 - 23.4.96) EDITORIAL US telecoms liberalisation fosters yet more mega-mergers They were seven Regional Bell Operating Companies or Baby Bells, now there will be only five: on April 1, 1996 the US regional telecoms operators SBC Communications and Pacific Telesis Group (PacTel) announced a $17 billion worth merger, while on April 22, 1996 Nynex and Bell Atlantic unveiled a $22 billion worth merger. The company set up by Nynex and Bell Atlantic would be America's second largest telecoms group after the long distance operator AT&T, while the one set up by SBC and PacTel, which would be known as SBC Communications, would be the third largest. Together, SBC and PacTel would weight over $21 billion in annual revenues and have a 30 million subscribers base, including America's two most populous states, California and Texas. SBC is already the country's second largest cellular operator after AT&T. As for Nynex and Bell Atlantic, they would jointly weight $27 billion in annual revenues and over 29 million subscribers, in particular in the populous East Coast. The ventures are the second and third large mergers since the adoption last February of the new US telecoms regulatory framework. The previous one, valued at $10.8 billion, involved the Baby Bell US West and the cable operator Continental Cablevision. The three mergers are largely the result of the competition unleashed by the 1996 Telecoms Act, which entitles long distance operators, Baby Bells and cable operators to enter each other's business with only few restrictions, and relaxes media ownershi p rules.

  • 1. Wireline Provision of Video
    television, but a harbinger of a whole new world ofhighly competitive integrated packages of voice, video, and high-speed data services. As one analyst noted: There are several reasons that these deals are troublesome to cable operators. The most obvious, of course, is the sheer number ofpotential subscribers involved. Beyond that, it is possible that at some point the telcos will use the current video entertainment arrangement as a template for broadcast data distribution. Such an effort could come from Hughes Electronics Corp., which owns both DirecTV and satellite data service DirecPC and could offer telco customers satellite data service Direct, and could offer telco customers DirecDuo, the combined DirecTVlDirecPC offering.64 Telephone companies have a distinct advantage in marketing additional residential communications services such as video programming - they currently provide" service to almost 100% of residential households. The opportunity to offer almost 100% of households one-stop- shopping can not be matched by any other communications media today. In order to meet this competitive force, cable companies must continue to upgrade facilities, and provide better programming, value and service to its customers. 1. Wireline Provision of Video. While Bell Atlantic and SBC have chosen DBS as a fast, relatively low-cost and low-risk means to enter the video marketplace, other telephone companies continue to build their own video-capable facilities on a community-by-community basis. Ameritech, for example, has acquired cable franchises in more than 107 cities and towns reaching more than 1 million television households.65 It has already deployed hybrid fiber-coaxial cable facilities in 90 communities in the Cleveland, Chicago, Detroit and Columbus, Ohio metropolitan areas, serving approximately 200,000 cable customers with its americast™ service in competition with 64 C.

New Networks Institute (NNI) and the Irregulators submit our written comments via email. Our comments have 2 primary parts;--- ATTACHED Comments filed originally with the California Public Utility Commission in proceeding Rulemaking 20-09-001, filed 10/25/20 and Order Instituting Rulemaking Regarding Broadband and Infrastructure Deployment and to Support Service Providers in the State of California. (Starts page 6.) We included a Summary, some graphs, and a Timeline of Broadband and Deregulation from 1989-November 2020, as well as the Irregulator bios. These comments are presented by New Networks Institute, a market research and consulting firm, and the Irregulators, an independent consortium of senior telecom experts, analysts, lawyer sand forensic auditors. (See page 4.) Separately attached: “The History of Fiber Optic Broadband In California”, covering 1993-2004. Originally published as a chapter in “$200 Billion Broadband Scandal & Free the Net”, the 2nd book in a trilogy published in 2015 . We included this chapter because in discussions with both CPUC staff and most experts, etc. there is a serious lack of understanding about how the Digital Divide was actually created and what is required to fix it, much less the factual history of fiber optic broadband and deregulation in California.

  • The SBC-Pacific Telesis-SNET-Ameritech Mergers Were the Death of State Fiber Optic Deployments
    (EXCERPT FROM A LARGER WORK) 1 The SBC-Pacific Telesis-SNET-Ameritech Mergers Were the Death of State Fiber Optic Deployments: There are plans underway for SBC to merge with AT&T. This will prove to be a terrible thing for America’s telecommunications and broadband future and customers. (We address this in other sections.) We believe that the creation of SBC, formed from a merger of Southwestern Bell, Pacific Telesis, SNET and Ameritech should be investigated and broken up. This enlarged mega-Bell harmed the fiber optic based broadband deployments that were underway in EVERY state — from California-Pac Bell and Connecticut-SNET, to Ohio-Ameritech and Texas- Southwestern Bell. SBC never fulfilled its state obligations to upgrade the networks properly. More importantly, when one company can control 40% of America’s digital future, and it decides to NOT do something, it impacts not only the 13 states the company controls (about 125 million people) but also the entire economy. Exhibit The SBC Hatchet of Fiber Optic Deployments (Sources: Bell Annual Reports) Money (billions) Households Merger Shutdown Cable Pacific Telesis $16.0 5,500,000 1997 1997 0 Ameritech (3states) $6.6 6,000,000 1999 2000 304,000 SNET $4.5 1,000,000 1998 2000 31,000 SBC, Texas $1.5 0 Pronto $6.0 Total $33.6 12,500,000 By 2002, over $33.6 billion should have been spent by the mega-Bell for fiber optic cable deployment in over 12.5 million households. As discussed, Pacific Bell promised deployment in 5.5 million households and to spend $16 billion by 2000; Ameritech promised 6 million households at over $6.6 billion by 2000 (in (EXCERPT FROM A LARGER WORK) 2 just 3 states); SNET promised $4.5 billion for just Connecticut.
