About government regulations for the ISP-- I agree that usually government regulations are a bad thing for business. What of other infrastructure in the city? Are there restrictions on prices for electricity? water? sewage? phone lines? plain old coax cable?

Provo handles many of these things, but what is the norm in hometown USA? I know some cities simply contract out things like electricity, and the electric company that wins the bid is basically a monopoly. Do cities put price requirements on the monopoly electric company?

I'd be interested in what government restrictions, if any, exist for other infrastructure in the city-- city owned or not. What do you know? What does the city where you grow up do?
