... if they are going essentially the same route as Utah and laying down the infrastructure so that an independent ISP can provide the actual services. I'm too tired to look it up (Friday night. Have to take the daughter to a party. Baby boy doesn't want to sleep...etc). Anybody know the details?
I don't understand why you guys would think of going any other way. If City lays the Fiber Infrastructure, then the Providers just negotiate for the size of the Pipe Connection. I think if the Cities and Communities lay their own Fiber, they will have better control on the Providers.
i personally think the incumbents fear this more then pure city run fiber and ISP. if the city leases out the media for cheap rates to providers it adds the potential for multiple competition instead of just having to compete with the city.
