Currently, Orange County pays approximately $3200.00 per month for Internet access that supplies both Orange County Employees and <br />serves the Orange_Public_WiFi network. As we expand, the public wireless offerings monthly will likely triple. Although, the <br />determination of final monthly cost is not addressed in this proposal nor is it known. <br />2. The estimated costs include 4 access points per building. <br />3. The Churton Street Corridor begins at Weaver Street Market and ends on the corner of Tryon and Churton Streets. <br />4. The Churton Street Corridor Proposal also assumes cooperation and partnering with the Town of Hillsborough and local businesses. <br />5. None of the proposed wireless solutions guarantee any building penetration, only open air access. <br />6. Bringing, wireless access to all Orange County residents is a large project that needs further study. <br />
