The Central Coast Broadband Consortium is a 10-year old broadly based, ad hoc group of local governments and agencies, economic development, education and health organizations, community groups and private businesses.
It is dedicated to improving broadband availability, access and adoption in Monterey, Santa Cruz and San Benito Counties, and has a long history of broadband development projects implemented by our members and as a group.
The top priority of the CCBC is providing resources and incentives to telecommunications service providers, including local government agencies, to build broadband infrastructure and extend it throughout Monterey, San Benito and Santa Cruz counties.
The main effort of the CCBC’s CASF-funded project will be to create a database of existing broadband resources and assets, including accessible conduit, rights of way and wireless sites, and to work with local agencies to develop model policies that support broadband deployment.
