   For years, municipal tax officials have received letters from Verizon   
   with a simple message: The company would no longer pay property taxes   
   on telephone poles, lines, and other infrastructure.   
      
   In its letters, the telecom giant says because it no longer provides   
   landline phone service to more than 51% of a municipality - a   
   threshold set by state law in 1997, before cellphones became   
   ubiquitous - it is no longer subject to taxation on its   
   infrastructure, known as business personal property.
