I do not live in Highland but I do work downtown. I have high speed inerntet access downtown in my office. That would be the basic norm for almost everyone in the downtown area. The residential base for downtown is still exceptionally small. The Shreve Memorial library comment is well taken. Another question has to be asked ,when could one get access to a public computer on the third floor at the downtown library? It is usually packed. The library needs more computer terminals as many of the users do not have the funds for a personal computer.The wifi concept in Highland seems much more logical.It is the residential area for many artists but also for many college age students and just starting out younger folks. It would also be a selling point for the neighborhood for potential residents.Highland is diverse and compact. I vote for Wifi in Highland. Can we get some signs printed by the artists and some bumper stickers? This is one time when the neighborhood needs to define the agenda for the City Council, not the other wya around. Maybe the artists could start with outdoor poster/ art in their yards to show support for the concept.Become activists or watch wifi go to some other neighboorhood.
