Don't have the city's lawyer draft the agreement. The city's lawyer works for the city, and isn't going to be looking out for your best interests.

Or just ask the city lawyer to draft the agreement. Sometimes you can avoid paying legal fees if they do it for you :) Also, it should include the rights to visit and repair/upkeep the fiber you use in their conduit. Usually it involves placing two boxes instead of one at the ends of the conduit, one is the cities, and the other yours. You either pull your fiber direct off a splice case from your box, or you install drop to their box and splice case (once the fiber is installed). Just some thoughts... -----Original Message----- From: Af [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Rob Genovesi Sent: Tuesday, June 30, 2015 6:27 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [AFMUG] Municipal conduit agreement Hi all, Does anyone have a boilerplate/sample agreement for use of municipal conduit? I'm looking specifically for cases where the agreement is for empty conduit (we put in our own fiber). We have a small town that has about 8 blocks of conduit, so it shouldn't need be anything too elaborate.
