Description

The United States has fallen behind many other countries in terms of broadband access and speed. In recent years a number of communities have taken the initiative to improve broadband facilities and access through a wide-range of infrastructure improvements and creative partnerships. Now that the FCC has released Connecting America: The National Broadband Plan, these community broadband initiatives will receive increased attention, some as inspirations and some as cautionary tales. This Essential Information Packet provides a series of articles, reports, and case studies to bring local governments up to speed on the state-of-the-art in broadband planning. The packet also contains examples of local task force recommendations, plan excerpts, and requests for proposals from communities eager to improve local broadband access and capacity.
