The City Council on Tuesday night unanimously approved a letter agreement with Metro Fibernet, also known as MetroNet, to install fiber-to-the-premises (FTTP) networks covering at least 85 percent of Mason City homes and businesses. MetroNet spokesman Joe Salerno told the Council the company would build the network at no cost to the city. According to the letter agreement, MetroNet service to Mason City would include up to 240 television channels, phone and internet service, wireless home networking, and private branch exchange phone service to businesses. Salerno told the Council they want to make Mason City a “gigabit city” with “failure proof technology” that can increase capacity as internet speeds rise.
