You should keep an eye out to make sure they don’t give a much better price to some telco in the future, I think they are required to charge WISPs the same pole attachment fees as anybody else, or does that not cover make ready costs? I do suppose make ready costs depend on circumstances, but seriously, $50 per foot of road? Assuming one pole every 300 feet, that’s maybe 40 poles, so $15K per pole? Somebody wants you to pay for all new poles. Or more likely, they just don’t want to do it.
