1.Augusta (GA) Wireless RFP Expected by End of April 2008
On April 1, 2008 the City of Augusta (GA) announced that it is ready to proceed with its plan to implement a wireless broadband internet network by the end of this year. The second largest city in Georgia and home to the PGA's Masters Tournament will be releasing its Request for Proposal (RFP) within weeks. Using a grant from the state of Georgia, the city will be spending more than $500,000 to build and deploy the Wi-Fi network over a highly populated area. With most of the deployment costs covered and only looking for an Internet Service Provider (ISP) to operate, market and maintain the network the City considers theirs a winning plan. Under the current plan, the majority of the capital cost for the network will be covered with the chosen ISP to operate the network under a revenue share plan with the City. For more information on the Wi-Fi plan or the RFP process, contact Hewett at 706-821-2525 hewett at augustaga.gov
