Questions of staff followed focused on: 1) confirmation that Aspire is both the service provider and contractor; 2) waiver of permit fees was requested as part of the negotiations which is a policy decision for the Council to consider and is open to change; 3) if funds were "set aside" for streets and roads to address potential roadway damage and they be restricted to only those uses rather than being unrestricted General Fund contributions; 4) with respect to pavement management, it was recommended the 6% fee be considered akin to a franchise fee, 5) the reason that a license agreement is proposed is to provide access to the right-of-way which other public utilities have by right, 6) the tier service levels proposed are targeted as residential service offerings; 7) it was noted that the license agreement Minutes of the City Council Moorpark, California Page 8 April 2, 2025 provides for a 20-year commitment due to the initial costs associated with connecting certain City facilities; 8) City Attorney Ennis noted that the Smart Cities Agreement has a 10-year term but does include termination and non- appropriation clause provisions, and the License Agreement provides for non-extension of the agreement; 9) confirmation that the License Agreement and the 6% revenue share will not jeopardize funds received from AT & T because AT & T fees are based on only cable television and not on internet service; 10) clarification that the City's exposure to the permit fee offset is limited to $50,000; 11) given a non-exclusive agreement, if another provider comes in, it will bring competition resulting in better service at lower prices; 12) reduced rate programs would also be a requirement for other providers; 13) delaying a decision on the agreements would result in a delay of Aspire starting their work; 14) how long will it take to reach the 7,000 subscribers; 15) screening for the four utility boxes required would be determined during the plan check process; 16) confirmation from City Attorney Ennis that the eminent domain clause in the License Agreement is an extremely unlikely possibility; 17) utility box screening parameters would go through process that could include consideration by the Arts Commission; 18) questions on the microtrenching process and how another provider would physically install its infrastructure; 19) road damage has diminished as the microtrenching process has become refined; and 20) it was noted that City facilities will all receive 10 gigabyte connections. Stephen Weatherford, Chief Executive Officer with Aspire Broadband, spoke to answer questions and provided comments on the benefits that Aspire seeks to bring to Moorpark including annual cost savings for service, improved connectivity, and a dark fiber network for City facilities, future revenue share to the City, and reduced pricing for low income households. Mr. Weatherford responded to questions from Council on the length of time to get to 7,000 subscriber level would take five to seven years; Aspire is local company and is looking to acquire an office in Moorpark; there is a likelihood that the utility cabinets discussed may not be required; questions on company stability, equity, and long-term projections; the network is estimated to be a 12-month build-out, with four to six months for the first customer connections; and discussion of timing with long lead time permitting items such as Caltrans, railroad, and bridges. Additional questions of staff included how far along discussions are with the second company that has expressed interest; it was stated that Site Server contacted the City approximately 24-hours ago stating they could provide a better offer. Mr. Chong noted that negotiations with Aspire over the last eight to 10 months have address many details on both the City and provider's side, including the provider's ability to calculate and confirm financial viability of the project. It was noted that it would require another provider some time to make those same determinations. In response to Council questions, it was confirmed that the agreements contain escape Minutes of the City Council Moorpark, California Page 9 April 2, 2025 clauses for the City and it is a non-exclusive agreement allowing for future competitors to come in. Mark McDonald with Site Server spoke regarding their company, its data center, and the fiber routes that they control, commented that once a company has built a fiber network no other provider will come in to build a network because the financials don't work, and that Site Server is an existing, proven internet service provider. He further remarked the one reason they have not made a proposal to Moorpark was to watch and learn from the issues with the buildout of the SiFi Network in Simi Valley. Mayor Enegren and Councilmember Barrett each disclosed they utilize Site Server for internet service. Further discussion among Councilmembers and staff took place regarding pros and cons of potentially delaying the decision and the length of time before other proposals could be brought forward for consideration.
