(Actually, my approach if I was building it would be Layer 2 unless the resident wants a Layer 1 connection to {a properly provisioned ISP,some other location of theirs}. Best of both worlds.)
Right, and a public-private partnership model is more common than having the city actually operate the network at any layer.
Oh, sure; most muni's contract out the build, and often the day to day operation and customer support load, to a contractor. But that wouldn't really help as much in this case, I don't think; that contract would create an agency relationship, and the contractor would not protect such log data (if it existed, which for L1 and L2 service, it would not as this argument posits it) *from the responsible IT employees of the municipality*.
