FTTH project on committee agenda with two proposed contracts for Aspen Smart Networks
Summary
The agenda lists two ordinances authorizing the Director of Public Service to contract with Aspen Smart Networks for FTTH project management and for network/operational support; both are marked emergency and were discussed at the Jan. 13 Public Service meeting.
The Committee of the Whole/Finance agenda for Jan. 20, 2026 lists two separate ordinances related to the city's FTTH (Fiber to the Home) project. Agenda Item 5 would authorize the Director of Public Service to enter into a contract with Aspen Smart Networks for project management services for the FTTH project and declares an emergency. Agenda Item 6 would authorize the Director of Public Service to execute a contract with Aspen Smart Networks for network and operational support services related to the FTTH project and declares an emergency. The Clerk's agenda text reads, "AN ORDINANCE AUTHORIZING THE DIRECTOR OF PUBLIC SERVICE TO ENTER INTO A CONTRACT WITH ASPEN SMART NETWORKS FOR PROJECT MANAGEMENT SERVICES FOR THE FTTH (FIBER TO THE HOME) PROJECT AND DECLARING AN EMERGENCY SUSPEND," and separately, the ordinance text for operational support is listed on the agenda.
Both items note prior discussion at the Public Service committee on Jan. 13, 2026 and a recommendation "to Suspend and Call" in the agenda entry. The agenda does not include sponsor names or contract values; the entries should be considered proposed ordinances pending committee or council action. Any confirmation of contract terms, procurement method, or cost would need to be obtained from staff or meeting minutes that record discussion and any vote.
