COMMISSIONER JESSICA ROSENWORCEL ANNOUNCES AVAILABILITY OF MODEL 
AGREEMENTS FOR SMALL CELL DEPLOYMENT

WASHINGTON, June 27th, 2018:
“Right now, policymakers across the country are focused on strengthening 
American infrastructure.  That effort includes roads, bridges, and 
broadband networks that support 5G wireless services.
That’s vital—because to be first to a 5G future, we need to focus as 
much on the ground as on the skies.  But figuring out how to deploy 5G 
infrastructure—which puts a premium on small cells—is a big task.  It 
means acknowledging that we have a legal tradition of local control in 
this country but also recognizing that more streamlined and uniform 
practices can help speed deployment.
Our cities are important partners in this effort.  That’s why today I am 
making available model agreements for small cell and 5G deployment 
negotiated by the City of San Jose and approved last night by the San 
Jose City Council.  Through these agreements, carriers will benefit from 
streamlined access to thousands of city-owned poles for their small cell 
deployments.  In turn, carriers will fund a decade long effort to help 
close the digital divide in San Jose, where more than 95,000 residents 
still lack access to broadband Internet service at home.
I thank Mayor Sam Liccardo for his leadership, and I share his hope that 
these agreements can inform the work of cities and towns nationwide to 
support universal broadband deployment and expand the civic and 
commercial opportunities of the digital age.”
