Current Broadband Projects and Efforts in Inyo County
Broadband for All is the State of California's commitment to closing the Digital Divide. Toward this goal, California has allocated funding in SB156 for a statewide middle-mile network as well as for last-mile construction and adoptions programs.
The County of Inyo has assembled a team to coordinate the County's involvement with SB156 activities with representation from:
- County Administration
- Public Works
- Planning
- Building and Safety Inspection
- Information Services
- City of Bishop
The County of Inyo submitted a grant application for Local Agency Technical Assistance funding in August 2022 to fund shovel-ready, last-mile network construction engineering designs to connect the unserved and underserved remote and rural population centers and cities in Inyo County to symmetrical 100Mbps or better broadband Internet service.
This GIS Link shows the several project areas in the County that we hope to connect to contemporary broadband Internet service.
