Verizon will soon launch its FiOS TV serivce to the Onandaga County town residents as The Clay Town Board in the central New York region has approved Verizon as the television franchise. The Clay Town is the first municipality in the central New York region to approve Verizon and they have started building the infrastructure to deliver FiOS TV service later in the year.
This is the 148th TV franchise Verizon has secured in New York and The Telco is expecting more TV franchise discussions with other central New York municipalities during 2009.
Andres Irlando, Verizon senior vice president for the New York region said “This marks yet another milepost in the expansion of our revolutionary FiOS TV product; bringing FiOS TV to a new region demonstrates Verizon’s commitment to the state in terms of investment, jobs and state-of-the-art broadband technology that leapfrogs anything currently available from other carriers. I want to commend the Town of Clay for recognizing the economic and consumer benefits of broadband investment and competition.”
