Va. House Repasses Pole-Attachments Bill

The Virginia House agreed with governor-recommended changes on a pole-attachments bill (HB-800), voting in favor of the amended measure by a 100-0 margin Wednesday. Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R) last week said the legislation should allow the Virginia State Corporation Commission to extend the bill’s deadline to resolve pole disputes by up to 60 days (see 2404090014). The Senate has yet to vote on applying that change to its version (SB-713).
