Description

Douglas County, Colorado (“County”) is seeking proposals from qualified organizations (“Respondent”) who have an interest in partnering with the County to facilitate the expansion of broadband services in the County’s unserved and underserved areas. Because broadband plays a central role in many facets of life and work, having excellent broadband is now a key factor in a community’s ability to lead and maintain a leadership position. From all aspects of a community (citizens, businesses, anchor institutions, economic development and County services), broadband has now become an important factor in what communities can offer in employment opportunities, lifestyle, and well-being. In looking toward the future, Douglas County’s leadership is strongly supportive of collaborating with a private provider in the deployment of a world-class broadband network to as many of the County’s households and businesses as possible.
