Wi-Fi would benefit many, sales reps say By D. E. SmootPhoenix Staff Writer • Voice-over Wi-Fi, a technology that complements — or replaces — cellular telephone service.
Ward IV Councilor Jim Ritchey said a city-owned Wi-Fi network would be a boon to public education and “a huge tool” that could be used to attract new businesses. “With cities showing growth in the technical and trade industries,” Ritchey said, “I think we’re going to be losing business to cities 40 miles up the road if we don’t do this.” Acknowledging that costs could be a barrier, Ritchey said he would support using some of the money the city will receive from the lease of Muskogee Regional Medical Center to Capella Healthcare for the proposed Wi-Fi network.
