Force the issue. Call the planner Kimber and speak to her. Failing
agreement there followup with an email and postal mail. This will force
the issue to public record.

Kimber Gabryszak, Planning Director:
I am the Owner and Manager at Avative Fiber. We have been providing BIAS
services in the community for several years. I recently noted that my
company is not listed as a required sign-off on the planning
department's Utility Notification Form.
Per the recent FCC Decision 15-24, my company is a BIAS provider. Please
include Avative Fiber on your Utility Notification Form.
Please contact me should you have any questions.
Thank you for your assistance,

The right of way is public and NON-Exclusive. If provider A is in there
then provider B with like services should be allowed in there.
Good luck!

I’ve done that and they city says NO.
As a small time developer myself, I guess it’s private land until the
plat records (and the ROW with it).
Some developers around here have very large ego’s and would still
rather I go in a month or two later and rip it all up or bore the hell
out of it again, than let me put conduit in their open utility trench
in the first place.
It’s really baffling and frustrating.

They walk into the planning department and ask to be put on the list.

Also, does this mean we can get on the city/plat developers list
and put conduit in open trench and see/approve developer ROW plans?

Ye’all have rights for ROWs now. Was in the latest report and
order from the FCC. If you are a BIAS provider (which you all
are) you are considered a “public utility” for the purpose of
obtain ROW access.

The original rule of thumb was something to do with what size
stick you can use to beat your wife/kids without breaking the
law. 144 strand loose tube is about the size of a thumb, so in
some jurisdictions you might have been able to discipline your
family with it. Say hi to your thumb for me.
Aerial is cheaper if you have pole attachment rights. You don't
need pole attachment rights (or any special rights) to bury in a
ROW, but you can point at it when some guvmint goon questions
you. It looks kind of official.

Say you want to run fiber for 10 miles.
Aside from the boring equipment and permits what does that entail?
I know there are 36 bazillion answers, but humor me.
Details like how often you need handholes and how to deal with
slacking for cut fiber splicing would be very helpful.
What is a rule of thumb in your long term planning on how
often you can expect a fiber cut. (an example of rule of thumb
is I expect a storm related issue at least once every three
years at every site, there is no actual science, or math, I
just look at my thumb and it provides me sage answers)
