AcenTek, a leading telecommunications provider, is bringing high-speed internet to Dakota County with the help of a $3.2 million grant from the Minnesota Office of Broadband Development Grant Program. This project will bridge the digital divide for an estimated 623 locations, offering them the opportunity to subscribe to internet speeds of up to 1 gigabit per second (Gbps).
The total cost of the project is estimated at $8 million, with the grant covering a significant portion of the expense. Construction is expected to be completed by March 2025.
Correction: apparently the project is actually in Dakota City in Winona. (6/28/24)
