Here is a stupid question. What is the official designation of an ISP?
Can I get a cable connection, re-distribute it to 4 people wirelessly,
file form 477 and get access to the right of way?

They may charge you a franchise fee, but it has to be the same as everyone
else.

Does that even work in the municipal boundaries not just rural? I was
thinking about deploying fiber in the city here and didn't know if the
city could stop me if they wanted too.

Absolutely. You are a BIAS provider and the FCC explicitly
defined BIAS providers as being eligible for ROW access equal

Get out your can openers. Does me, the ISP, being classified
as a common carrier, mean I get right of way access?
