Sorry Lanny you off the wall again. Your mysterious deep throat that gave you the Wi-Fi cost is off by a little bit. Originally the cost was estimated by the Great Arbitrator to be in the area of $2-3 million, now you say it is in the area of $400k. Me thinks you are in la-la land.
The tower, if we go with it, probably will cost upwards of that number, if we don' go with a tower then the wiring alone will probable exceed that number.
So Lanny's estimate of $2.00 per unit per year for 5 years is off by at least a factor of 4. So the $2.00 becomes $8.00 per unit, per year for 5 years. This does not include other cost of living increases. Like the reserves, infrastructure repair and upkeep, WPIR increases, etc. Building back the Reserves and regular Cost of Living increases.
It doesn't take into account the Opt-Outs. It doesn't take into account the irrelevant (so labelled by the Great Judge) bid committee.
Heck it doesn't even take into account the people that are not interested in wi-fi or are not interested in computers and have none.
I believe you should carry your own weight and pay for your own toys; The majority of CV residents do not own computers, Smart phones, Ipads, do not use Netflix, hulu, amazon, Google for streaming movies.
So what is being proposed here? The minority, the very small minority wants wi-fi to increase their units resale (getting ready to move out?) or to lower the costs of operating their toys?
In my 42 unit condo, there are not more than 10 wi-fi users. I can see them on my computer and my guess they are all not residents.
