The telco is not putting the infrastructure to support them in, because it
costs less for them not to put it in.

Your goal, as a customer, is to make it so that it costs them more money
not to put it in.

The PUC can be your friend or your enemy in this fight, depending on how
you approach the PUC and what attitude you take toward them.

But if you just throw your hands up and say "it's impossible," people aren't
going to believe you, because they have seen plenty of circuits installed in
similar situations.  If you say, "It's expensive and I can't afford it,"
though, they would certainly be willing to believe that.
