There is no reason that you can't use their on-line form to add your comments for/against the petition, or just write your own letter directly. The main point is to get this issue into the public eye for discussion since tech issues normally don't make headlines or decide political campaigns. Then, let New Yorkers decide what they want to support.
As far as I know, the Wireless Philadelphia project did not use any government funding (thus should not raise taxes) and one of it's biggest beneficiaries is Earthlink, an independent ISP. They raised external funding to invest in a municipally owned infrastructure that will be leased to private sector ISPs.
