A Lakeland Communications representative told the Frederic Village Board on May 11 that the company will extend fiber to homes and businesses in Frederic for free as part of a project that will run this year into next spring.

The representative said Lakeland will complete post-construction cleanup promptly. The board heard the presentation during its regular meeting and did not take formal action on the proposal at that time.

President Amanda Blackmon presided over the meeting. No construction schedule or start date was specified during the presentation, and the representative did not provide an estimated timeline for household service activation.

The board’s public-works contact, B Struck, was listed as the coordination point for public-works issues in other agenda items; no specific city permit or fiscal commitment to the fiber project was recorded in the minutes.
