Bill Summary

CONCERNING BROADBAND DEPLOYMENT, AND, IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, CODIFYING THE COLORADO BROADBAND OFFICE IN THE OFFICE OF INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY; CREATING THE DIGITAL INCLUSION GRANT PROGRAM, THE BROADBAND STIMULUS GRANT PROGRAM, AND THE INTERCONNECTIVITY GRANT PROGRAM; AND MAKING AN APPROPRIATION.

AI Summary

This bill creates the Colorado Broadband Office to serve as a central entity to plan and coordinate statewide broadband deployment and access strategies. It establishes three grant programs - the Digital Inclusion Grant Program, the Broadband Stimulus Grant Program, and the Interconnectivity Grant Program - to fund broadband infrastructure, digital literacy, and regional broadband planning efforts. The bill also requires the Colorado Broadband Office to develop a statewide broadband plan and report on the progress of broadband deployment projects. The funding for these initiatives comes from money the state received from the federal American Rescue Plan Act of 2021.
