North Florida Broadband Alliance Update
The
$30 million NFBA Broadband Grant Project
continues to move ahead to enable high-speed
connectivity for our 14-county region, which
includes Lake City.
The NFBA will have a core broadband network
consisting of 93 towers throughout the 14-county
region and is expected to be fully operational
by February 2012.
The NFBA Operations Committee met early this
week to discuss the Business Plan with emphasis
on “Beta” Customers, Revenue Projections, and
Pricing Models.
During the next NFBA meeting in early June,
the recommendations of the OPS Committee will be
presented to the Board.
