18 <br /> 1 Andrew Stevenson said that even though it is geographically larger, there's typically an <br /> 2 equivalent number of homes in each polygon. <br /> 3 Commissioner Fowler asked if there are people within the polygons who might not be <br /> 4 underserved. <br /> 5 Andrew Stevenson said Lumos's definition of those who are unserved is anyone that <br /> 6 doesn't have fiber. He said the state considers anyone with cable internet as served. <br /> 7 Commissioner McKee asked when work stopped on the project. <br /> 8 Andrew Stevenson said roughly the end of June or July. <br /> 9 Commissioner McKee asked how many polygons would have been served had work not <br /> 10 stopped. <br /> 11 Andrew Stevenson it's hard to say, but maybe a couple. <br /> 12 Commissioner McKee said that would be two polygons. He said that essentially Lumos <br /> 13 is asking for almost full payment for half of the remaining homes. He said it's not right, because <br /> 14 people have no recourse. He said the other options are pie-in-the-sky. <br /> 15 Robert Reynolds said that the total number of passings will be reduced from 6,370 to <br /> 16 5,852 and the completion of the contract will be extended to July 1, 2026. He said the <br /> 17 reimbursement schedule will be amended and the payment terms will be 15 days instead of 30. <br /> 18 Commissioner McKee asked for an explanation of BEAD funding. <br /> 19 Chair Bedford asked if he could wait for that answer so the presentation could be <br /> 20 completed. <br /> 21 Robert Reynolds said the county is working with the state for stop gap funding for the <br /> 22 remaining homes due to the amendment. <br /> 23 <br /> 24 Slide #5 <br /> Orange County FTTP Project Schedule(5852 HHs) <br /> -. ?ezn wnrsn znn-xs nnxs Rerar. <br /> caoao.rwo.orE <br /> Rrn <br /> e+vmo <br /> sRewrx,a �__ <br /> w..RorosR <br /> emmt RrtrerrcM1 <br /> MrecueW <br /> Gesyn Ermrrraen� Erpmm <br /> Onmor65R <br /> LgrrcalrK <br /> 6irzctur O;Fl <br /> vreperman [^Greair{ <br /> �p_nsmWno Er�_�_ <br /> mlreger 09P I <br /> ir6er lxrmrrelinsWN85Rlirny CamnuvWm <br /> Rniv.En OIV7n( _ <br /> dtrec>'urlti c <br /> £arrp ryr+uR E^D^`er:nR <br /> RRr x RYSM E.uMr 1.x.Rm wn..) £c <br /> Rs...Eeurxw��nl.S.oaR xwnof r..-- -. <br /> raw ii <br /> Yha.eRYu4n luwdr.RRRRHawl elgr,e.,iny <br /> v 6AMr5M EaixntM1 lLlai Hcxm.•� FSr erinE — <br /> vNw 6MartH UrMrI.e65 naM19 '.^4nr-z.ine <br /> Project Schedule <br /> 25 <br /> 26 Commissioner McKee asked if the true deadline is December 31, 2026. <br /> 27 John Roberts said that is the deadline for all funds to be expended, and for any other <br /> 28 addresses to be added beyond the amended number of locations. <br /> 29 Chair Bedford said a previous amendment was never signed. <br />
