Jerome County commissioners approve payment to advance CPF broadband project, staff report it is 85% complete
Summary
County staff reported the CPF-funded broadband project is 85% complete and projected to finish by June 2027; commissioners approved payment to ETS to begin the next phase at the July 20 meeting.
Scott Linsley updated the Jerome County Board of Commissioners on the county’s CPF broadband project, saying the work is "85% complete" and that the final phase would be phase 7 with a proposed completion date in June 2027. He described remaining tasks including fiber cable installation and tower construction intended to expand coverage countywide.
After Linsley outlined the timeline, commissioners discussed a payment request from ETS to begin the next project phase. Commissioners present decided to submit the payment following the presentation so work can proceed. The update included a plan to allow extra time in the schedule in case of delays.
