The Lancaster County Board of Supervisors meeting on June 12, 2025, focused on significant updates regarding broadband service providers and ongoing projects in the area. The discussion highlighted challenges with the Virginia Broadband Expansion Program and the status of local internet service providers.

During the meeting, a key speaker addressed the current situation with All Points Broadband (APB) and Breezeline, both of which have not made progress on the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development's VADI project. The speaker noted that the VADI dashboard indicates several outstanding activities that must be completed before these providers can extend services beyond the initial qualified customers from the 2021 project.

The speaker expressed frustration over the lack of communication from APB and Breezeline, stating that attempts to obtain updates were unsuccessful. The meeting revealed that Verizon had previously applied for funding but withdrew due to a requirement to service all addresses within a ZIP code, which they were unwilling to fulfill. This has left APB and Breezeline as the primary traditional service providers, alongside satellite options from Amazon, Starlink, and DIRECTV.

The discussion underscored the complexities of broadband expansion in Lancaster County, with the speaker emphasizing the need for significant work to address the current gaps in service. The meeting concluded without clear resolutions, leaving the community awaiting further updates on broadband availability and provider commitments.
