Council Member Gutiérrez inquires about the completion of the public asset inventory called for in the Internet Master Plan. Brett Sikoff explains the current status of the inventory and how it relates to the original plan.
- Sikoff confirms that an inventory of public assets exists, but it may not exactly mirror the one in the Internet Master Plan
- He mentions that the inventory includes city-owned buildings, rooftops, poles, and rights of way

master The city owned buildings, rooftop poles and rights of way.
Brett Sikoff
1:44:58
Yeah, lot of that is is unchanged.

So, you know, that can be leveraged for future, and that's what I mentioned earlier about potentially repurposing elements of the Internet Master Plan that could be utilized in the future.

So having a comprehensive inventory of city facilities, city assets, that can be utilized.
Jennifer Gutiérrez
1:45:15
So when you have that, OTI has that?
Brett Sikoff

We certainly have the remnants of the original plan, but I'm certain that over time it's been updated with respect to new buildings that have come and gone over time.

Okay.
