The Door County Administrator believes the county will greatly benefit from Governor Tony Evers' proposal to fund broadband expansion.
Evers' 2021-2023 budget plan includes $200-million to bring broadband internet to under-served communities. That proposal was outlined in the governor's State of the State address on Tuesday. Administrator Ken Pabich says he agrees with Evers' assessment that reliable internet service is now a necessity. It's also a challenge for Door County.
Pabich is hopeful the state will see the benefits of additional funding for broadband expansion.
