President Olson opened the March 10, 2026, meeting where the board received a presentation from a representative of Central Cable Company about a proposed fiber-optic build for the village. The presenter said the company is installing fiber for Silo Communications in rural towns and that installation in Davis would take approximately two weeks and could begin in June if the board grants permission. The representative told the board that "residents would have 100% option to hook up to the service and there would be no cost at all to the village."
Board members asked questions about timeline and process but took no formal vote; the minutes record only that the board will do further research and discuss the proposal next month. The presentation covered contractor responsibilities and the company's prior work in nearby Rockton. The village has not yet set any permitting conditions, service agreements, or a formal authorization for the project.
