EXPANDING BROADBAND ACCESS IN BROOKE AND HANCOCK COUNTY.
How you can make a difference. 3.25.2013

 If you’re a resident or business in Brooke or Hancock County, we need your help. Please complete the broadband needs survey at www.regionalbroadbandsurvey.com or call 304-558-5300 or download the following QR stamp. Increasingly, broadband has become a way of life or a key business tool. Unfortunately, because they have no access or are underserved, residents and businesses may become digitally left behind. If you’re a student in a local school district or a home-based business, you know the immediate impact. This survey is funded through the West Virginia Broadband Development Council. Surveys should be forwarded no later than April 26th. For further information, please contact Barb Zimnox at the Brooke-Hancock Regional Planning and Development Council. 304-797-9666 or bzimnox@bhjmpc.org
