"Should be incapable" and "are legally prohibited from" are two different things here. The United States is perilously close to seeing its infrastructure utterly collapse in many areas with the backlog of repairs climbing exponentially every year. Sure, maintenance is expensive, but failing to do routine maintenance means a simple repair becomes a big problem. If there's one thing that America seems to love it's building things, and if there's one thing it seems allergic to it's paying taxes to keep those things in working order. The only way out for some municipalities might be to offload these expensive responsibilities to third parties (e.g. "Public-Private Partnerships" or outright sale) to get them off their books. Domino's taking over road repair responsibilities is just the beginning of a sad trend. The problem here is that roads aren't cheap to maintain but they're necessary and if the only option is a private one then equal access is critical. The same goes for network infrastructure although at a smaller scale.
