The Kansas Office of Broadband Development (KOBD) opened a public comment period for the state’s Broadband Acceleration Grant Program. The open comment period is part of an extensive review of the 36 applications competing for $5 million in available grant funding. Interested stakeholders can participate by reviewing proposed service areas and expressing either support or specific concerns about the proposed grant projects. “The intense demand for this program across Kansas reflects the widespread need for more robust broadband access in unserved areas of Kansas,” said Commerce Secretary David Toland. “We are committed to being transparent and making the best possible investment decisions for Kansas broadband infrastructure, and we invite the public to comment on these highly competitive investment decisions.”
