California wireless access bill 855

AB 855 (current text here) aims to streamline leasing of public lands for cellphone companies, and earmarks 15% of the revenue for 'digital divide' projects, to be disbursed by a committee.

How about simply creating a presumption in favour of granting community and non-profit 802.11 wireless projects access to public lands for their base stations and backhaul?

If Niue can have ubiquitous public wireless access, why not California?
