Would enough customers sign up for a super-fast broadband/internet service in Sanford-Springvale to make it self-sustaining? The City has secured a grant to start the process for residential broadband/internet service. Through this grant, the City has hired a market research company to gauge public demand for the expansion of SanfordNet Fiber, your community broadband network.
The phone survey – targeting 400 households – will be conducted by Barrows & Associates beginning the week of October 12, to solicit feedback from residents on broadband/high speed internet interest within Sanford-Springvale.
The survey is part of the process required to get the financing to expand the network. Internet providers want to know if there will be enough customers, and what rate they are willing to pay for faster service, to make it worthwhile to build.
The survey, should take only 10 – 12 minutes. If you are called, please plan to participate and help determine the community’s interest in this important project.
