<br />Project Description/Justification:Funding in FY2017-18 included
<br />$1,160,000 in fiber connectivity within the Town of Hillsborough. Funding
<br />of $1,160,000 is requested in FY 2020-21 to extend County owned fiber to
<br />facilities in the Southern part of the County.
<br />During FY 2016-17, Information Technologies undertook a fiber inventory
<br />and assessment project by hiring a fiber needs assessment consultant to
<br />estimate how much it would cost to run fiber to county facilities that rely on
<br />Time Warner network connections. These connections are billed monthly
<br />at approximately $17,000 per month. After connecting county facilities,
<br />excess fiber could be offered to other government agencies, schools and businesses as a means of improving
<br />internet service andmaintenance cost sharing. This fiber request may be offset with potential construction cost
<br />sharing agreements with other partners.
