I would think in this model that the city would be prohibited from 
providing those services.

Perhaps I live in a different world, but just about all of the small to 
midsize service providers I work with offer triple play today, and nearly 
all of them are migrating their triple play services to IP.

If rural telco in Alabama or Mississippi can deliver triple play, surely a 
larger provider somewhere like NYC can do as well, no?
