dark fibre is all well and good but without an easy way for a community to access that and light it up for your (wireless-) backhaul/synchronous connections to become your own private carrier, Co-Location, Co-op etc, we are going nowere.

you dont need an ISP for that OC as you could buy the end kit and connect it up yourself in theory but dark fibre isnt exactly off the shelf consumer friendly today, so its far easyer if there are some 3rd party to do it for your community.
