Utility / FiOS lines too close to house

Our neighborhood utilities are run on poles and unfortunately these lines run right along the side of my house. When I say right along side I mean the lines are maybe 5 feet from the side of my house and maybe 10 feet off of the ground. I believe the bottom most bundle is Verizon fiber lines along with Comcast, phone lines and on top the power itself. There is that much slack in the fiber / phone lines that when there are strong gusts of wind they slap against the side of my house. I have tried contacting my township manager but they will not do anything about it and told me to contact the utility company. So here I am. I have no idea who to contact as I have no idea who owns the poles, the lines, etc. Hopefully, somebody here can help.
