Frustrated by slow, expensive, and underperforming internet service, town officials engaged Connecticut-based Sertex Broadband Solutions to conduct the online survey. A town-owned network would provide high-speed, affordable, and reliable internet access for everyone in the rural community, regardless of geographic location or socioeconomic status. Unlike fiber internet service from private companies, a municipally-owned network would ensure high-speed broadband connections for all residents and offer more bandwidth at pricing levels controlled by the town.
