Mr. Peter Hendrick:
The commercial entity will say it cannot connect the house because it has done a survey showing it has to dig up the road and put in some poles, making the cost of connecting too expensive. The entity may not actually give you a price. It may simply say it cannot connect you. For that very reason, we are not removing the premises from the intervention area or seeking an encroachment subsidy.
