Dobson Fiber presents proposal for townwide gigabit service; council takes no action
Summary
Dobson Fiber representative Heather Durham presented a proposed fiber internet build for Kiowa, estimating an average household price of about $68.30 per month and construction as early as May; the council requested follow-up research and took no formal action.
Dobson Fiber representative Heather Durham presented a proposal to bring fiber-speed internet to Kiowa, saying the average household cost would be about $68.30 per month and that construction could start in May if the council approves the project. A company sales representative will follow up with the town on business-access options.
Councilmember J. Wilson (reporting on follow-up tasks) said he will research whether the town’s Water Plant can be added to the proposed network. The presentation included a projected timeline that could allow a Gold Shovel groundbreaking event in April, but the council took no vote on the proposal at the Feb. 26 meeting. The item remains pending further staff research and company follow-up.
