the same challenges when it comes to broadband – including large
land area, dispersed populations, and limited funds.

development. As nationwide interest in rural broadband
increases as a result of billions of dollars of planned economic
stimulus funding, Franklin County’s example is critical and
timely.<BR><BR><STRONG>Join Government Technology Magazine and the
