That’s a great set of recommendations, John! For folks looking for funds to pay for the gear, I would suggest utilizing PEG fee revenue. PEG stands for Public/Education/Government and is a fee paid by cable companies to local government for the use of public right of way. By law, PEG fees HAVE to be used for capital purchases, so all the gear you list here is eligible.
Wow! That is great to know, Will. I don't know if my county does that or if it's more of a municipality thing. But definitely something government-based readers should explore.
Great guidance, John!

Most cities have what's called a Franchise Agreement with cable providers. Some counties have them as well. It's worth checking into.
