Tisbury selectmen joined the chorus calling for cable television service to Chappaquiddick this week, voting to pull out of the Islandwide contract talks with Comcast.

“With Edgartown pulling out because of the Chappaquiddick piece not being addressed, I’d like us to send our marching orders to our representative [Fred LaPiana] to stop talks as well,” said selectman Jeffrey Kristal. The vote came at the selectmen’s meeting Tuesday.

Negotiations with Comcast over a new 10-year service contract began in June. Edgartown pulled out of the talks last month after the cable giant stalled on the issue of providing cable service to Chappaquiddick. Edgartown has said it will stay out of the talks until Comcast can guarantee that service to Chappy will be included in the new contract.

Last week the Cape and Islands legislative delegation also jumped into the issue, saying they would meet with Comcast spokesmen this week to press the matter of service to all underserved areas on the Vineyard.

In a swing through the Vineyard on Monday, Cong. Bill Keating also spoke about the issue and echoed complaints about Comcast’s lack of responsiveness. “My wife has them on speed dial,” he said.

On Tuesday, Tisbury selectman Tristan Israel joined the vote to exit the contract talks but wondered aloud at the consequences.

“Let’s just hope we don’t get cut off on Patriots [Saturday],” Mr. Israel said.
