Update: Broadband Expansion Task Force

On June 8th, three members of the Pierce County Broadband Task Force held a planning meeting for their upcoming September strategy session. On June 24th, the PC Board announced a Request for Proposals to hire a Pierce County Broadband Consultant. The RFP can be downloaded here.

In coming weeks, task force members will monitor distribution of ARPA funds by the PC Board, research Infrastructure Act funds and meet with super stakeholders. If you are a super stakeholder — that is, someone who has been negatively impacted by the lack of affordable and reliable internet access as a healthcare worker, businessperson, educator, librarian, or local government worker — please email juliet@gro-ww.org.
