| Sell it to the experts
who actually know how to build and run a network. Either to Quest or whoever the cable provider is there, with some guarantees of expansion and delivery. If they aren't interested, find some experienced company who is. In no way should the municipal gov't be involved in running this (as they've already proven).
Do the taxpayers a favor and let someone with marketplace experience act on their behalf. It will be much more successful that way. |

Washington, DC | Selling it is sort of a good idea, if it doesn't go from a public monopoly to a private monopoly. Maybe sell shares, get a director, and spin it off into a new company that wholesales to other companies. |

You're probably right about that, but instead of selling it, they should farm out a long term lease to someone who can support and deliver.

i agree with Jason completely but i dont think that any cable provider would be stupid enough to take on a project such as this that would not generate the revenue that it would need to generate in order to make a profit after they purchase and upgrade the network. |
