County staff: VADi broadband rollout making progress in eastern Wythe County
Summary
Mount Rogers Planning District Commission and provider contractors are progressing on the VADi broadband grant work; staff said several eastern‑end neighborhoods should be completed by week’s end and encouraged residents to use online locator tools to check eligibility.
Staff reported that the Mount Rogers Planning District Commission, Citizens Co‑op and Point Broadband are making measurable progress on the VADi broadband grant work. Contractors are completing builds in several eastern‑end areas and county staff said the addition of a second contractor is accelerating progress and could allow work to be substantially complete in listed pockets by the end of the week.
Staff urged residents to use provider locator tools on the firms' websites to see whether addresses are eligible and to contact the county or Mount Rogers PDC with questions. "They are overseeing the work now of Citizens, co‑op, and Citizens has provided an update for us... they're currently working Topaz or, Reed Creek and, around Oak Hill, Lane and Fox Drive," a staff presenter said. No new county funding was requested; this was an informational update and residents were referred to grant administrators for eligibility checks.
