Nevada AB509 revises regulations for broadband providers accessing public rights-of-way.
Nevada AB509 amends state law to require the Nevada Public Utilities Commission to annually review whether certain telecommunications providers continue to operate as public utilities. It exempts certain small telecommunications providers from being classified as public utilities. The bill also allows local governments to grant franchises and impose fees for broadband providers using public rights-of-way. These franchises and fees must be applied uniformly and cannot exceed 5% of the provider's gross revenue.
