First Steps for a Citywide Fiber Network

Here's a breakdown of the initial steps you'd take to initiate a citywide fiber project, incorporating elements from the provided feasibility studies and focusing on funding, ISP evaluation, and infrastructure considerations:

Phase 1: Strategy & Policy Development

1. Establish a Broadband Policy: Define the city's vision for broadband. This should cover:

• Goals: Ubiquity, affordability, competition, open access, desired speeds, and financial sustainability.
• Roles: The city's role as owner, facilitator, or partner.
• Community Engagement: Processes for gathering public input and ongoing communication.
