Dear Select Board, Finance Committee and Broadband Committee Members,
The Massachusetts Broadband Institute at MassTech (MBI) would like to invite you to a series of April meetings intended to assist your town as it moves toward a discussion of broadband expansion at upcoming town meetings. During these informational sessions, the MBI will review the status of Last Mile projects, provide information on the grant application process (the means by which a town secures its share of state funds), and discuss the recently distributed draft warrant article and ballot question.
Three meetings, which will cover the same set of topics and presentations, have been scheduled across the region on dates/times we hope will maximize participation from your town.
The dates and locations are as follows, with all meetings taking place from 6:00-8:00pm:
- April 15th Becket Town Hall Community Room (lower level), 557 Main Street, Becket
- April 22nd Ashfield Town Hall (lower hall), 412 Main Street, Ashfield
- April 23rd Swift River School, 201 Wendell Road, New Salem
To register, click here<https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/V5RPFQZ>. We would appreciate receiving your RSVP by Wednesday, April 8. If you have a specific question or concern you would like addressed at these meetings, please be sure to submit it with your RSVP.
These meetings continue our series of community outreach which began last Fall. The MBI recognizes that significant municipal investment is being made to this project and understands how important the issue of broadband connectivity is for each of your communities. We will continue to work with each town to advance the expansion of high-speed Internet. We look forward to meeting with you at the upcoming sessions and to working with you over the coming months and years to address this important challenge.
For more information about the MBI last-mile effort or if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Chris Hatch at hatch at masstech.org<mailto:hatch at masstech.org> or 508- 870-0312 x620.
Eric Nakajima, Director
Massachusetts Broadband Institute at MassTech
Please note: If a quorum of your Selectboard and/or Finance Committee will be attending, you may want to post an announcement in accordance with Open Meeting Law.
