SUMMARY
The construction work is completed on the fiber installation pYOject within the Business Park and there is a
provider who�vould like to use our fiber system. This is the first opportunity to use the system and therefore
a license must be created to permit private use of the public system.
BACKGROUND
Over the last several months the City has been working to have fiber installed in the Business Park right of
way. The fiber would be "dark fiber" and would permit various providers to utilize the system for the
building tenants within the Park. The first provider has appYOached the City to hook into the system. The
City Attorney is working on the license which will permit private use of the system. Given that the City
wants to encourage use of the installed fiber, staff is recommending a �50/month fee be paid to assist in
offsetting maintenance and upkeep of the fiber and building. The license would be revamped if there were
additional users added by the provider. At this time the City Attorney continues to work on finalizing the
language. The property o�vner is interested in moving forward so staff is hopeful the item will be completed
in time for Council approval at the December 2, 2014 meeting.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Mayor execute the attached license bet�veen the City and Arvig
