For years, reliable high-speed internet has been one of the top concerns I’ve heard from residents in Miccosukee, Chemonie Crossing, and surrounding rural communities.
With the support of the Board, I made broadband expansion a strategic priority for the County, positioning us to help build and lead the team that supported Comcast's successful grant application. As a result, thousands of homes and businesses across rural Leon County will gain access to reliable high-speed internet, with nearly half of the project serving Northeast Leon County.
Construction is already underway in some areas, such as Chemonie Crossings, and should be complete by Fall of this year. You can find more information for your specific address by checking Comcast’s tool at https://xfinity.com/mytown.
This investment will improve opportunities for students, families, remote workers, and small businesses while helping ensure our rural communities stay connected and competitive for years to come.
I’m proud to have helped move this project forward and look forward to seeing installation begin across our community.
