Hi <br>
<br>
I can only agree on that, now that I have read this over. <br>
<br>
The last interactions I've had with the City Staff have been
negative <br>
on having a June 2016 vote because of the competing tax measure,<br>
and they suggested 11/2016 as more appropriate. <br>
<br>
I asked them to look into the reported requirement that an election
where there is a bond issue<br>
needed to be a city council election, and have received no
definitive answer. <br>
<br>
Looks like this task force is a step back from even getting
municipal Fiber optic,<br>
but more focused on studying broadband in Davis, and a lot of
extra effort.<br>
<br>
Anyone have any ideas on what to do with this ? <br>
<br>
The staff report and recommendation will be presented as a consent
item tomorrow at the city council. <br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
<br>
P.S. How does this relate to the Sports Complex?<br>
<br>

<pre wrap="">The timeline will not allow for a 2016 referendum or any popular vote in 2016. This proposal calls for a second timeline to be started in July, 2016 for policy revisions, public hearings, etc. It's probably more realistic to look at 2018, when Comcast's franchise expires.

Hi All
1) Thanks to all your efforts, we have a council item on
the consent
calendar for Tues Dec 1 meeting to recommend Davis adopt
the Yolo
Broadband Plan and make a Task Force to help the city
decide what is
best to do for Davis for fiber.
A copy of the staff report is here:
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://documents.cityofdavis.org/Media/Default/Documents/PDF/CityCouncil/CouncilMeetings/Agendas/20151201/05F-Broadband-Update.pdf">http://documents.cityofdavis.org/Media/Default/Documents/PDF/CityCouncil/CouncilMeetings/Agendas/20151201/05F-Broadband-Update.pdf</a>
Its a rather large document because it has the Yolo
Broadband Plan
attached to it. The details about the Task force are in
the first
pages. I don't think this would have materialized
at all at the
City level without everyone being a force, and asking
for and
delivering on meetings, and Public Outreach.
2) An article about community businesses funding an
Upgrade for El
Macero -

Does anyone have any insight on whether this is really a
Fiber
deployment or just paying a deposit to fund a build out
by Comcast?
Thanks
