Finally, something Andy and I can agree on. I think that a cooperative
of this nature would benefit from working *with* the existing LocalGov
especially in the beginning phases. Heck, I'd even be OK with the idea
of LocalGov providing some taxpayer provided initial funding to get the
thing kicked-off, as long as the long-term plan was for the entity
to operate in a non tax-subsidized fashion.
It might not hurt to talk to people with existing cooperatives - both
inside and outside of NC - as well. NC is served by many rural utility
coops as it is, providing telephone, electricity and cable TV service.
And there was that one existing broadband coop that I linked
to before. No sense re-inventing the wheel.
TTYL,
Phil
