Council approves franchise agreement with Strata Networks to serve Riverwoods development
Summary
Council approved Resolution 25‑05 to authorize a franchise agreement with Strata Networks. Strata's right‑of‑way agent said the current work would serve Nelson Homes' Riverwoods development only, while the franchise is open‑ended to allow future expansion with council approval.
Nick Woodland, a right‑of‑way agent for Strata, told the council the company's immediate plans are limited to serving the Riverwoods development being built by Nelson Homes. "The current development would be with Nelson Homes in their Riverwoods development. Right now, we just have a contract with them to provide service for that development only," Woodland said. Councilors asked whether Strata intended citywide work; Woodland said no, the agreement is open‑ended so the city and company could consider additional service in the future if needed.
Council member questions focused on contract intent and whether the franchise permits future expansion; staff confirmed the resolution authorizes the franchise agreement. A motion to approve Resolution 25‑05 carried on roll call vote.
