Hi Folks

This is an excellent letter, well worth a read.

Industry lobbyists on the FCC BDAC have put forth their recommendation 
that all municipal networks be privately owned. Last week the CTO of 
City of New York resigned b/c of all the blatant industry dominated 
outcomes. This is the Gilded Age again.

  *CLIC Strongly Rebukes FCC BDAC Process & Outcome*

Dramatically Undercuts Local Governments Ability to Improve and 
Accelerate National Broadband Access

In a strongly worded letter submitted on April 12, 2018, CLIC has 
communicated to the FCC its deep concerns regarding the selection 
process and associated restrictive outcomes of its Broadband Deployment 
Advisory Council (BDAC). As CLIC states: “The Commission’s startling 
failure to include adequate local government representation in the BDAC 
process...has unsurprisingly resulted in BDAC recommendations that would 
undercut the important potential of local governments to help improve 
and accelerate broadband access and availability throughout the nation.” 
  CLIC’s letter details the failings of the BDAC member selection 
process and sets forth eight specific concerns with Article 12 of BDAC 
draft model state code. Our full letter can be found here
