Update on Anoka County – looking for last mile providers

Just a quick update on the ARRA-funded project in Anoka County. As you may recall, Anoka ia working on building fiber to anchor institutions – and they are hoping to find a last mile provider to serve local residents and businesses. In fact, part of my reason for mentioning their progress is to help them find a good last mile partner – so please feel free to share the news…

Their next Governance Group meeting is scheduled for June 21. The plan is to invite last mile providers to make presentations on their services. If you know of any last mile providers who might be interested, please have them contact David Minke.

The meeting will start at 9:00 AM in Room 705 at the Anoka County Government Center. Please pass the word along to all those who may be interested in learning more about last mile connectivity including council/board members, EDA members, economic developers, cable commissions, etc.
