leaning pole and low cables

I live at [Edited: "Personal Information"].  On NE 20th Ave s/o NE 15th Ln, there is a leaning pole

with Xfinity Cable attached to it.  At mid-span to the next pole south, the cables are only 8' off the ground.

A couple of years ago, the pole caught fire and was replaced by LCEC.  Xfinity did not transfer its cable to the

new pole, thus the problems.  Please have someone investigate this situation and get back to me.  My name

is [Edited: "Personal Information"], Xfinity Subscriber, [Edited: "Personal Information"]

The foliage has been cleared around the pole in question, thus offering 

excellent access to the work area.  Please schedule your work of transferring

the Comcast cables to the new pole and raising the cables at mid-span.

This being hurricane season, it would be advantageous to all of us to get

this work should be done as soon as possible.

Thank you for your attention to this situation.

To date, the only thing done is that the area around the leaning poles has been cleared of vegetation.

No work has been done to transfer the Xfinity cables to the new pole, which will raise the low hanging cables.

In addition, the leaning pole and cables are causing a pole on the corner to now begin to lean.  Something has

to be done regarding this situation in the very near future to prevent more serious problems in the future.

Call me at [Edited: "Personal Information"] for further updates and information.

Thank you.  John W. [Edited: "Personal Information"]
