Broadband expansion shows progress but 118 locations in Chattahoochee County remain unserved
Summary
The plan maps broadband availability and grants: 1,174 locations have fixed broadband, 1,011 are encumbered by grant commitments (USDA, ARPA, FCC RDOF) and 118 remain unserved; the plan prioritizes broadband planning to position for state and federal funds.
The Comprehensive Plan Update documents broadband availability and federal/state grant layers. According to the plan, "As of June 2024, there are 1,174 locations with fixed broadband service," and another "1,011 locations are currently encumbered by grant commitments for fiber service" from USDA, ARPA and FCC programs. The plan adds: "There are 118 remaining unserved locations in Chattahoochee County," and states the county will continue to facilitate deployment to remaining sites.
The document identifies grant recipients by name (Charter Fiberlink/Spectrum; Flint Electric/Conexon Connect; Public Service Telephone Company) and records that broadband data are sourced from the FCC fabric released May 2025 and BEAD/other grant layers current as of October 2024. The plan elevates broadband as a priority in the comprehensive-plan broadband element to improve economic and education access.
