I don't know if Cost Reduction Financing would work for the City because they already use the I-net for free, any thoughts? I'm sure there are other buildings they might pay for access to that could be considered. We will be sending an update as soon as we are able about the City of Davis Consultant selection in regards to a Municipal Fiber study. We hope the Agreement is concluded soon, and look forward to working with them to do something innovative with great fiber optic connectivity for Davis.

It's generally a good event for learning more about the national scene and for making contacts with other communities interested in municipal fiber. Last year DavisGig helped send Rob Nickerson to the event. This year we might be able to subsidize one or two attendees. The subsidy will probably cover registration. If you're interested in attending as a representative of DavisGig, please let the Davis Community Network board know by this Friday. Just drop a note to tell us why you're interested and if you'd need financial help to attend. Decisions on this will likely be made at the Davis Community Network Board meeting, next Tuesday at 5:15pm at the Davis Makerspace. (All DavisGig volunteers and other broadband activists are always welcome at DCN meetings. Just drop Rob or me a note and we'll send meeting details.) Best wishes, Steve McMahon -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
