The Blackford County Economic Development director reported no responses to a broadband tower RFP; commissioners voted unanimously to review and readvertise the solicitation.

BCEDC Director Warren Brown told the commission that an RFP for broadband towers, advertised July 18, 2025 with a 4:00 p.m. deadline, produced no responses. Brown recommended the county review the solicitation and readvertise to attract proposals.
