FIOS

Many of you have already taken advantage of Verizon's new FIOS service for Internet and Phone over their fiber optic network. For now residents cannot get the TV service offered by Verizon because the franchise agreement between Wallace Township and Verizon is being negotiated. This is the same type of franchise agreement that Comcast already has with the township for providing TV services. This agreement among other things will impact how much you will pay on your bill in Franchise taxes, so it is important to get things right. As well these contracts usually have very long terms so it will be a long time before the Township has an opportunity to negotiate this contract again.
