Re: support ltr for RidgeviewTel

Laura,

 

I recommend that SLC submit a letter of support for Ridgeview Tel's application.  

 

For the SLC IT Committee's information, Ridgeview Tel recently provided the technical information required for a grant application being prepared by the Town of Fine to provide broadband internet service to the hamlet of Wanakena.  Preparation time for the grant application was critical.  Three ISPs were contacted for information.  Only Ridgeview Tel could respond in time.  Ridgeview Tel provided all of the required information within several days to meet the deadline.

 

Bill

Subject: support ltr for RidgeviewTel

Dear Committee Members:  Ridgeview Tel is requesting St. Lawrence County submit a letter of support of their application of ARRA funding from the NTIA.  Dan Churchill has indicated they will be submitting their application on or near 7/14.  He has provided an executive summary of the application, along with a sample support letter which I have attached to this email for your review.

 

I believe it is in SLC's best interest to support Ridgeview Tel's efforts, along with other interested businesses, to seek these funds.  I propose the IT Committee recommend that the Chair of the Board of Legislators sign the attached letter.  Given the timing of the request, is it the will of the committee to proceed as proposed?  Please let me know by Friday.
