A question from a new resident that just moved from San Diego, to Chattanooga -- & brought my web hosting business with me:

1. The fiber installation, is it underground, or is it run along the power lines?

2. I am also wondering if there could be an initiative to reenable those WIFI devices that were originally geared towards police officers, and, open them up to EPB subscribers to use wifi city-wide (or, where available). I'd consider paying extra for this. One of the cities I've lived in before offered city-wide wifi., and it was a great way to get people outdoors (and downtown).

3. I'd love to contribute more to fund homes that can't necessarily afford gigabit, is there some pool we could all contribute to & offer a lower priced package based on street, perhaps?

I can't speak for the AMA folks, but, I can say that there are few datacenters here vs. other places. The gigabit connectivity is for consumers & small businesses, there's minimal benefit to datacenters that can just get their own fiber directly run.

Edit: I also moved my company here after hearing about the gigabit connectivity & pricing of it. The cost of living, mountains/outdoor stuff, and central location of the city makes it a great place to raise my family, operate my business and stay healthier by being outdoors.

It's fairly public information, and we've got great spam filtering :)

Not this very second, but, fire me your cv/resume to [email protected]

Roger that! :) Was just curious, seems like it'd be easier to maintain above ground vs. unground wire.
