Other: U Report # 210060 Hi again, I'm following up from yesterday's U Report. Duke responded immediately with the information that the wire is a cable line. Duke recommended that I get back to my local Bloomington government because since I've owned this house I have never had cable service, therefore I do not know whose line it belongs to. Do you have any record as to who owns/is responsible for this abandoned cable line? And is there a statute of limitations for an abandoned line - can I cut it down myself? What is the risk of danger if I do so? Any insight that you can provide is appreciated. Sincerely, Elida C. Behar April 22, 2026

Elida, I do not advise cutting this wire. This is most likely internet or cable. I stopped by today briefly. I will send an email to my contacts at comcast about this and I hope that they can address the issue if it belongs to them. Please let us know if this is not resolved. Thanks for letting us know.
