MEC says Camp Madron Road build needs commitments from all 45 parcel owners
Summary
MEC will survey Camp Madron Road in Buchanan Township to see if existing fiber can be reused; if not, new fiber is required and MEC said it needs agreement from all 45 parcel owners to proceed with construction.
MEC told the task force that a proposed high‑speed internet line to the Camp Madron Road subdivision in Buchanan Township will require a decision on whether existing fiber—installed by a previous provider—can be accessed and reused. MEC will survey the area to determine if reuse is feasible.
If the existing fiber cannot be accessed, MEC said it would need to install new fiber and that the company requires commitment agreements from all 45 parcel owners (including vacant lots and homes) that they will subscribe to MEC fiber service. MEC described constructing the line without customer commitments as not currently viable; the company also plans outreach to solicit sign‑ups where appropriate.
The Task Force did not take formal action on the Camp Madron matter but recorded MEC’s requirement for owner commitments as a precondition to proceeding with construction.
