Commissioners table IdeaTek broadband letter of support pending funding details
Summary
IdeaTek requested a letter of support for an Accelerations Grant that may require county monetary contribution; the board voted 3-0 to table the letter until the county's financial responsibility is clarified.
John Terry of IdeaTek asked the board to sign a letter of support for an Accelerations Grant intended to expand broadband. Terry said the grant application requires the county where it is filed to contribute monetary funds but the specific county contribution amount was left open.
After discussion, the board voted to table signing the letter "until more information was provided about the grant and the County's responsibility part" (motion recorded 3-0). No dollar figure or match commitment was approved at the meeting, and the item will return when county financial obligations are specified.
