I don't see what their problem is......

Especially if the incumbent providers will not provide service.

The only argument I can think of would be that if the incumbents feel that they can't provide service for a particular area, then it would be a waste of the taxpayer's money for the local government to provide it.

So, in the end, if the incumbents feel that they can't provide your town/area with service, you're just SOL.

That is stupid, if I pay taxes to my local area and it was not served by any incumbents, and the local government said they wanted to provide it, put it to a vote, and it passed, why should anyone tell them they can't do it?
