Discovery Phase: Who do I call? What do I do?

So The first attempts at removing this back yard cable junction box will be through the Fairfax County website. I'm bypassing the COX avenue completely expecting customer service will just tell me to unplug the back of my cable box for 5 minutes and that should fix it.

First I'll try contacting the Utilities branch: (the whole shooting match is pasted below for reference)

Attempt 1 was to call the Utilities branch of the Cable Consumer Protection. They seemed very confused at my request, and suggested that I file a complaint requesting COX to move the box and someone will contact me within 5 business days.

Complaint filed... now we wait.
