I agree with this approach. This cost does not need to be born by the municipalities alone. Contracting companies will line up to build and maintain the infrastructure. The initial build out could be paid for by bonds which would be repaid by the ISPs who lease access. The ongoing maintenance would be paid out of the same fees. ISP competition would help insure that the whole endeavor would not be too costly.
