<br /> Project Description/Justification: Funding in FY2017-18 includes
<br /> $1,160,000 in fiber connectivity within the Town of Hillsborough, and
<br /> $2,091,350in funding in Years 6-10 for expansion county-wide.
<br /> During FY 2016-17, Information Technologies undertook a fiber inventory Q
<br /> and assessment project by hiring a fiber needs assessment consultant to
<br /> estimate how much it would cost to run fiber to those county facilities
<br /> currently supplied by Time Warner with network connections which are
<br /> billed monthly at approximately$17,000 per month. The $3,251,350
<br /> proposed fiber backbone will extend from Cedar Grove to Carrboro and run
<br /> east west from Efland to potential economic development zones to the east along Highway 70. After connecting
<br /> county facilities, any excess fiber could be offered to other units of government, government agencies, schools
<br /> and businesses as a means of maintenance cost sharing. This fiber request also may be offset with potential
<br /> construction cost sharing agreements with the Town of Hillsborough and other partners.
