for this email. It would be very appropriate for you to
share your ideas with the Council on this item tonight. As
it is expected to be a long agenda tonight it might make
most sense to select one or two representatives that can
speak for your group of supporters and include their names
in your remarks or written comments. If you are able to
send your ideas to the City Clerk
<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:CityClerk'sOffice@cityofdavis.org"><CityClerk'sOffice@cityofdavis.org></a> before the
meeting they can be distributed to the Council members and
you can refer to them in making any oral remarks. I have
copied Diane Parro, our new Chief Innovation Officer in this

Broadband access opportunities for Davis businesses and

<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Sarah and Kelly,<br>
<br>
Saw the Potential Tax measure item on the City Council agenda,
<br>
<br>
With DavisGIG, our idea is to give the City an asset, the
fiber optic network, that will support the city through new
revenues for the coming decades.
<br>
All the city has to do is own it. IT wouldn't have to
support it, that could be done by directing some of the
revenues DavisGIG generates to fund maintenance
<br>
by the non-profit community network we have in town already,
DCN.<br>
<br>
Similar to the way Davis Waste Removal manages the city waste
management utility.<br>
<br>
Our main idea of getting it funded is through a ballot measure
June 2016, which is likely when this "Potential Tax" for a
sports park
<br>
along with the road repairs would be voted on. So you can
see my dilemma here. 2 taxes, 2 measures, one election,
difficult.
<br>
Personally, I think fiber optic goes better with road repairs
because it has to be buried anyway, but that doesn't mean it
all can't happen.<br>
<br>
Is there any desire for fiber optic funding to be part of this
tax amongst City Staff/Council? I thought I'd ask before
making
<br>
arrangements to mobilize anyone to come speak about this at
the City Council meeting.
<br>
<br>
Thanks for any insight you can provide<o:p></o:p></p>
