but rather to lease dark fibre and related infrastructure to licenced service providers.

Procedures and standard contracts are being put in place to support tariff based services
Tariffs will be advertised as part of the City’s Budget process for public comment during March – April 2012 and public hearings thereafter.
These tariffs make provision for:
Rental of unlit Telecommunication Fibre

Metro Short-haul Circuits: 100Mbs, 1Gbs, 10Gbs
Thank you
In Closing:
The city has establish and is operating the first phase of its metro optic fibre network for own use.
