Would you buy broadband service from your local municipality?
The result is that a broadband user in Provo who connects to Utah.gov or the UVSC network does so without being routed through Denver. I am convinced that local and regional exchange points are necessary for broadband to deliver on its promise. This is a good role for Government because its sometimes difficult to get private entities to cooperate in the public good without incentives. [Utah Valley Community Network] is a great example of some good public officials cooperating to accomplish something that none of them could have done alone.Sounds like a darn good idea to me.
