Case/Project No.:
Submitted by: Matt Cox, Public Works Director and Graham Jura, Deputy City Attorney | Resolution 19-266
ITEM 7.E. | Council Action: 11/18/2019 |
|
| | | | | | | | Description
Resolution granting a nonexclusive license to Uniti Fiber, LLC to operate and maintain its fiber optic cable system in City right-of-way and authorizing the Mayor to execute an agreement. |
|
| | | | | | | | Background/Discussion
Uniti Fiber, LLC currently owns the fiber network referenced in this agreement and leases it to Windstream for operation. At this time, Windstream has filed for bankruptcy but continues to operate the network pending the outcome. With the outcome uncertain, Uniti Fiber, LLC would like to have this agreement in place to step in and resume operation of the network in the event Windstream is unable to do so. This agreement only becomes effective if such event occurs, and we recommend approval in order to be pro-active in continuing service of the fiber network.
