Geneva, IL
| The tri-cities work well and work well together. Having been a resident of the tri-cities since 1979, and have done work for the city of Geneva, I can say this:
The three cities work pretty well together.
The fire, police and ambulance services are all dispatched from tri-com, which is a central dispatch place for all 3 cities. This has been working well for longer than I have lived in the area. Here in Geneva our electrical service is city-operated (no ComEd here) and has always been reliable, and is one of the lowest priced electrical services in the state. Also true for water and sewer. There is even talk about building our own electricity generating plant (but this is still just talk). The track record for city services here is proven (at least by me). I see absolutely no reason why the broadband project can't work every bit as well.
On the other hand, hardly a month goes by when I don't need to call Comcast about a cable TV outage. It can get very irritating. The only positive about this is that they have always given me credit for the outage day. But I would rather pay a whole bill and have a whole month's worth of proper cable TV.
