Since this is a public effort, will others have access to the infrastructure to provide their own services for benefit of the public? Reverse argument of the one that is typically made regarding private companies not sharing their infrastructure built in municipalities' ROWs. That would be a starter for me that I would begin to favor a publicly funded ISP scenario.
If by "others" you mean the cable and telephone companies, then hell no. They aren't willing to open their own networks, so why should they get access to the municipality's?

By others I mean any viable and legal entity that wishes to use the public infrastructure to provide a service.
