Title:
Review Connectivity Services Agreement for Broadband Services
Background:
Anoka County and Zayo Bandwidth will soon enter into a partnership with Zayo Bandwide, LLC. Through the partnership, Zayo Bandwidth applied for and received a National Telecommunications Information Administration (NTIA) grant paying 70% of the construction and equipment cost for the county-led effort to increase the amount of fiber optic cable in the county. The grant project will construct an approximately 286 mile fiber network throughout Anoka County linking 145 governmental institutions.
Anoka County will need to have written agreements in place with any entity that wishes to participate by April 1, 2011.
Attached to the case for review is the agreement with Anoka County and a "Connect Anoka County" FAQ. A map of the fiber routes for the City of Ramsey is also included.
David Minke from Anoka County will be in attendance to answer any questions council may have.
The City Attorney has reviewed the agreement.
Request for final approval will appear on the regular city council agenda for the March 22, 2011 meeting.
