Municipalities are innovating ways of attracting new business, increasing tourism, improving public safety, and providing new services to residents. In such a scenario, a broadband wireless network is the best option of achieving these targets. It facilitates economic development, bridging the Digital Divide, in bettering government services, and also indicates that the city is on the leading edge of technology. Besides ensuring continuous Internet connectivity, improved service with public works departments and safety through video surveillance networks, it can also be a revenue generator.
