The property owner, not the network operators (or users of unbundled elements if that's even still a thing) are being presented with an agreement that acknowledges the removal, authorizes the fiber installation and provides for a minor oversight of the design. It suggests that no costs are involved in terms of hosting equipment. No power reimbursement. No rent for spaces used.
