History

In 2013 the City began consulting with the Culver City business community about their need for enhanced broadband connectivity. The City then completed high-level network design and a report on potential business models(PDF, 4MB). On November 9, 2015, the City Council appropriated funding for the design and construction of a Municipal Fiber Network. Construction of the backbone began in August, 2016 and finished in July 2018.
