New City Master Plan Promotes Broadband

Last week, City staff presented City Council with a draft of a new Master Plan. There’s a lot in it, but page 70 talks about broadband. Specifically, it lists two relevant Action Steps:

  • Ensure that all residents and businesses have fiber optic broadband access.
  • Work with the Holland Board of Public Works to create Wi-Fi zones in certain areas of the City.

Sounds good to me! Broadband continues to be City Council’s #1 priority, yet progress happens slower than many of us would hope.

Holland BPW continues to work towards wiring downtown, however summer 2017 is probably the earliest we could see that completed. The good news is that the work is continuing and soon we’ll know exactly what is needed to finish downtown.
