> Date: June 19, 2005
> RE: Downtown Wireless Initiative
>
> After the June 15, 2005 Council meeting, the Town Manager referred a 
> citizen petition to the Technology Advisory Committee requesting that 
> a wireless network be established to serve the neighborhoods of 
> Northside and Pine Knolls. Currently, the Downtown Economic 
> Development Corporation is in the very early stages of pursuing a 
> downtown wireless initiative and a town-wide wireless network is 
> included as one of the activities in the Technology Advisory 
> Committee's 2005-2006 strategic plan (presented to Council on March 
> 23, 2005).
>
> I hereby request that Council authorize the Technology Advisory 
> Committee to work together with the Downtown Economic Development 
> Corporation and any other town or university group that may be 
> involved in planning and implementing a downtown or citywide wireless 
> initiative. Such collaboration would include, but not be limited to, 
> determining the coverage area, reviewing and selecting platform and 
> hardware, reviewing and contracting with consultants, designing a 
> business plan, and promoting the idea with citizens and local businesses.
