Why Now?

Our community is falling behind the rest of the state in our ability to connect.
We need to strengthen and diversify the local economy now. Broadband is necessary for most next generation jobs.
Virtually all local businesses use the internet; affordable access is necessary for them to thrive.
We are located in one of the most difficult areas to serve in the state. The market is unwilling or unable to serve our current and emerging needs. As public and private organizations we need to get involved in making the solution happen.
Now is the time. The momentum is building statewide and nationally to get something done. We need to be prepared to leverage that energy and interest in our favor.
