I talked to the FCC and they got out of the cable business in 1996. They said the city oversaw the cable company and the company could charge what it wanted to. I'm sure a town of 500 is not going to have much competition.
I think that may be to your advantage. 500 people, that's pretty small. The mayor has to be the cousin of someone you know. Get the mayor, city council... to pass a resolution that sets a requirement that the cable company provide limited basic cable at $12/mo.
