He said the state considers anyone with cable internet as served. <br /> Commissioner McKee asked when work stopped on the project. <br /> Andrew Stevenson said roughly the end of June or July. <br /> Commissioner McKee asked how many polygons would have been served had work not <br /> stopped. <br /> Andrew Stevenson it's hard to say, but maybe a couple. <br /> Commissioner McKee said that would be two polygons. He said that essentially Lumos <br /> is asking for almost full payment for half of the remaining homes. He said it's not right, because <br /> people have no recourse. He said the other options are pie-in-the-sky. <br /> Robert Reynolds said that the total number of passings will be reduced from 6,370 to <br /> 5,852 and the completion of the contract will be extended to July 1, 2026. He said the <br /> reimbursement schedule will be amended and the payment terms will be 15 days instead of 30. <br /> Commissioner McKee asked for an explanation of BEAD funding. <br /> Chair Bedford asked if he could wait for that answer so the presentation could be <br /> completed. <br /> Robert Reynolds said the county is working with the state for stop gap funding for the <br /> remaining homes due to the amendment. <br /> Slide #5 <br /> Orange County FTTP Project Schedule(5852 HHs) <br /> X -22 —24 M." fan-25 dun 2 MaE-2G <br /> Dim'Ipr NerveM <br /> Pmjrtt Planniry ninE <br /> sne senery Fngrnxir4 <br /> sntanlRrtFra <br /> Dnxtor lP <br /> Desgi EglRniG Fnpneeni <br /> DrmprosP <br /> F..nn.v+vlw ,.Rs� <br /> D Rtp osn <br /> ow iera.w pmtrraipn <br /> Fveperanm oPOMm� <br /> orlP <br /> F pwrp inpRMlbn Frpraml[ <br /> Damp.Dsp <br /> Pipe.TermvllnMkd SVPR Cpmtrvaipn <br /> Dim"ipr OSp <br /> _merealPawer C<Irusl'nn Fignxiq <br /> Dutttpiv <br /> Fpuip Tumup fnpnen"4 <br /> [n®nning <br /> DSp <br /> uahn la�rn lit �1 .ing <br /> <M1lst mesl :"8^es*mH <br /> �sls;Iwo lwmol f"V-4 <br /> marYn uin<als; mn) FnD^Pering <br /> «6NPa.ael lainsa 16b5 Plp.nes� i"®^se"T <br /> Projected <br /> Commissioner McKee asked if the true deadline is December 31, 2026. <br /> John Roberts said that is the deadline for all funds to be expended, and for any other <br /> addresses to be added beyond the amended number of locations. <br /> Chair Bedford said a previous amendment was never signed. <br />
