Washtenaw County has formed a Broadband Task Force to address the problem of lack of internet service in rural areas.  One goal is to achieve county-wide high-speed broadband access by 2022.  Other goals of this Task Force are to identify households without high speed broadband access, assess resident interest in subscribing to high speed broadband if it becomes available, and achieve a state of preparedness in preparation for grants to fund broadband expansion.  Some of these goals may be achieved – in part by an already approved and funded survey by the Washtenaw County Commissioners which hopes to determine high speed broadband coverage at the houshould level in 16 rural Washtenaw County townships and to measure resident interest in subscribing to such service if it becomes available.  Lima Township will have a BBTF member.

The Township recently received an email regarding fiber installation for internet access for residents living on Parker Road between Jackson and Scio Church Roads.  Those interested may contact Washtenaw Fiber LLC via phone at 734-757-3554 or e-mail sales/at/washftth.com.  This information has not been checked out so please do your due diligence before making any decisions.  Lima Township knows nothing about this company and is not endorsing it.
