Broadband Advisory Task Force
Fiber Optic Feasibility Study Kick Off meeting
Bicycle Hall of Fame, Davis CA
Friday July 28th 2017
11:30am - 5:30pm


Hi Davisites

City of Davis has contracted with CCG Communications to prepare a 
comprehensive Feasibility Study on the topic of building community-owned 
fiber optic network cable throughout the city. The goal here is to 
provide all parcels within the City with the next generation of Gigabit 
Internet capability as an economic development investment, as well as, 
possible revenue source and major asset for our City government.

The pre-engineering analysis is already underway, and the President of 
CCG, Doug Dawson, will have some preliminary costs in mind at this 
meeting. The Task Force will get an update on current engineering 
analysis progress, and will be having a collaborative discussion, 
refining the remaining scopes of the Study, and further steps.

Undoubtedly, on Doug's mind is consideration of the strength of interest 
and enthusiasm for community adoption and use of municipal fiber optic 
network, as well as the business model about how its operated.

  Davis GIG has been advocating this innovative model: City of Davis 
invests and owns the fiber optic cable infrastructure, a community non 
profit manages operation and leasing of that infrastructure to private 
ISPs,  multiple ISPs offer data/phone/TV bundled or a la carte to 
residents and businesses in the City. Competition gives consumers better 
prices, better services, plus a portion of your monthly broadband 
payment collected by the ISP is paid back to the City to pay its 
investment. See https://www.davisgig.org

The Task Force would like to hear from residents and businesses that 
have an interest in seeing some sort of fiber optic cable deployment 
throughout Davis. If you believe you have a thoughtful or constructive 
contribution to this community dialogue, the meeting is open to the 
public but please please be in email contact with Sarah Worley with City 
of Davis - sworley at cityofdavis.org so we can get an idea of attendance.
