Hey, Google! Wire Alameda!

See more interviews and favorites on the WireAlameda YouTube channel.

Deployment will be quick and easy.

• Our municipal utility owns all the needed infrastructure, easements, and rights-of-way
• We're a temperate climate with a flat, easy-to-dig soil throughout the island
• We've laid fiber throughout our city before

We're committed.

• The City of Alameda has appointed as point person Deputy City Manager Jennifer Ott, who has considerable experience dealing with large, multi-discipline projects
• Alameda has committed to appoint a permit streamlining task force
• WireAlameda is committed to supporting a Google/Alameda collaboration in any way possible

We're an excellent sandbox.

• There are many large and small tech businesses in Alameda.
• Alameda's population is diverse both demographically and technically.
• Alameda also has a diverse mix of modern and Victorian construction, with both single-family and multi-unit dwellings, all of which provides a broad range of deployment scenarios in one place
• We're less than an hour from the Googleplex, making it very easy to interact directly with your testers.

* and yes, we know that fiber isn't wire, but "FiberAlameda" is a bit ambiguous and "PullAlameda", well, you can see where that goes wrong.
