Re: Bad for taxpayers! Another government agency!

If the citizens of Lafayette weren't happy with LUS as an electric provider (either price-wise or service-wise), why would they have voted for municipal fiber?

Could it be that municipal systems are actually good for the community?

If the true purpose of the City wide FTTH plans are to lower prices, can't this motto should work for any other high price services we pay for? My electric keeps going up, and I say let the local government build the power plants for me.
If I'm not mistaken, Lafayette is already a municipal electric provider - »www.lus.org/site109.php
