Tina "Podlodowski will return to the Mayor’s Office of Policy and Innovation to focus on developing new policy options for public broadband in the city."

Seattle Mayor Ed Murray announced on Thursday, May 8th, a shuffling and a hiring in his office. Among the shuffling was the re-assignment of Tina Podlodowski to focus on broadband policy in Seattle.

Good. 

The last thing Seattle needs is a rubber stamp of the Comcast contract.

They charge too much and deliver too little.

Seattle needs to move on to fiber to the premises. That would open up more of the city to businesses that rely on high speed data transfer rates, as well as providing the opportunity to increase the speeds for citizens while lowering costs.
