A communications company wants to sign a franchise agreement with the city of Parsons to allow for underground fiber optic cable on city right of way. The city commission will consider an ordinance during a regular Monday evening meeting that would allow Cox Communication Kansas LLC to install an advanced fiber optic network in town. During a Thursday work session, City Attorney Ross Albertini said the non-exclusive franchise agreement is based on one the commission approved about five years ago for Fibernet with a “few minor tweaks.”
