excellent idea. All commissioners agreed that a complete study of both coverage and throughput
both inside and outside businesses and residences (not just along roadways) should be
commissioned by the city with an appropriate vendor.
5. Commissioner Iimura provided information on the AT&T announcement on gigabit fiber service
to Cupertino. The TICC discussed the positives and negatives of the fact that the fiber service is
only provided to existing AT&T coverage areas. Commissioner Friedland stated that Rick Kitson
had already agreed to have an AT&T representative come to a TICC meeting as soon as possible
to provide further details. After the representative comes the TICC will then debate
recommendations that can be made to City Council and the potential incentives that can be
provided to AT&T in order to expand coverage or subsidy areas of Cupertino that are not provided
with"free" coverage by AT&T.
