make it a publicly owned and operated municipal utility
make the “last mile” publicly owned infrastructure and private service providers can connect to the data center that connects the last mile
require that the company who owns and maintains the last mile can not also be a service provider over that last mile infrastructure
The last one is how Texas handles the power grid, so it would need a real regulatory body making sure the private last mile infrastructure is actually maintained, unlike the Texas power grid.

Looks like over a dozen states ban municipal ISP in some form or another.
