Help with the Benton County Broadband Feasibility Study
22 Oct 2021
Benton County is working on a broadband feasibility study to help us understand what areas of our County either have no broadband service or have slow internet speeds (what's called an "under-served" area). Data from the Study will help the County determine where it can make grants to providers to bring broadband service to these areas of the County. Please help us by completing either a residential or business survey and the broadband speed test.
Thank you! Benton County Broadband Committee
Commissioner Jared Gapinski, Chair
