Changes In The Law:
Under changes brought by the State legislature and Governor, on September 29, 2006, Governor Schwarzenegger signed into law new legislation that will permanently change the regulatory scheme for the provision of video TV services (including cable TV) in the State of California. The Digital Infrastructure and Video Competition Act of 2006 (DIVCA) establishes the California Public Utilities Commission as the sole video TV franchising authority in the State of California for all new video service providers. DIVCA took effect January 1, 2007. The City of Los Angeles continues to oversee, on a limited basis, the City's incumbent cable TV providers, Time Warner, Cox and Charter, as well as the new entrants to the City, Verizon and AT&T.
