County administrator reports progress on broadband "Light up Livingston" project, capital plan and mobility-management RFP
Summary
A county staff report said the county has executed agreements to enable construction of municipal fiber (MIP) strands and that reconnect work is under way; staff also said the 2026–2030 capital improvement plan will be presented in August and that ArcGlo will not renew the county's mobility management contract, prompting a new RFP.
David, speaking to the Livingston County Board of Supervisors, reported progress on the county's broadband rollout, the schedule for the capital improvement plan and a change in the county's mobility-management contractor.
Why it matters: The broadband and capital projects affect county infrastructure planning and grant deliverables; the mobility-management provider change could alter transit or mobility services used by residents.
What the county reported
- Broadband: "We've been able to, successfully execute all of the agreements that will enable, the construction of the MIP fibers," David said on the record. He also said the county is already under construction on reconnecting strands as part of the overall initiative the county referred to as "Light up Livingston."
- Capital improvement plan and budget timing: County staff said they have started drafting the 2026–2030 capital improvement plan (CIP) and the 2026 annual budget. The CIP will be presented to the Ways and Means Committee on Aug. 11 and then to the Board of Supervisors on Aug. 13, according to the report.
- Mobility management: Staff reported that ArcGlo has notified the county it will not renew the current mobility-management agreement. The county plans to issue a new request for proposals to find a qualified firm to take over the program; staff said there is local interest in providing the service.
Supporting details from the record: Staff met on July 1 to discuss mobility management. The county said the broadband advisory committee met and received updates from Planning Director Crow and outside counsel Phillips Lytle. David closed his report by saying the county expects to be on track to meet the grant deliverables tied to the broadband project.
What was not decided: The meeting recorded progress and next steps but did not adopt a policy or award a contract for the mobility-management replacement; a new RFP is planned.
Ending: The county administrator concluded his report and opened the floor for any supervisor questions; none were recorded before the meeting moved on to other agenda business.
