Video Franchising

We’re currently negotiating in many municipalities to gain franchise agreements. The process takes time, and a lot of effort.

You can help. By adding your voice in support of video choice and competition, you’re letting your local officials know how important this issue is. That can help keep the franchising process moving forward towards a fair and equitable agreement.

Once Verizon has secured franchises with local municipalities, residents will be one step closer to benefiting from a new choice for video entertainment. The final step in the process is approval of the franchise agreement by the New York Public Service Commission.

At New Yorkers for TV Choice, our role is to help keep you informed, keep you engaged and ensure that your voice is heard during the video franchising process.
