Remember how Houston’s wifi was to “be free to city government, as well as Houstonians who bring their own laptops to select hotspots, such as large parks“?
The definition of free is $2.5 million over five years:
24. ORDINANCE relating to proposed Citywide Wireless Network; approving and authorizing two contracts between the City and EARTHLINK, INC for 1) a Wireless Broadband Network License Agreement and 2) a Wireless Services Agreement; providing a maximum contract amount – 5 Years – $2,500,000.00 – Central Service Revolving Fund
