Bill Summary
AN ACT RELATING TO LOCAL GOVERNMENT; AMENDING THE INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT ZONE ACT TO PROVIDE FOR BROADBAND INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT BY A LOCAL GOVERNMENT.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Infrastructure Development Zone Act to allow local governments to develop broadband infrastructure. It expands the definition of "services" that can be provided by an infrastructure development zone to include "cable or other telecommunications lines and related equipment, including fiber optic transmission facilities designed to carry communication signals such as voice, data and video and any broadband technology infrastructure." This change gives local governments the authority to invest in and build out broadband networks as part of their infrastructure development efforts.
