City Invites Public Input on Criteria for Sale of Burlington Telecom

Past event
Dec 9, 2015, 5:30 to 7 PM

The City of Burlington and the Burlington community have a significant investment in Burlington Telecom’s success and interests in ensuring affordable, effective, and responsive fiber optic services for its residents. To that end, the City is engaged in a public process with the residents of Burlington to determine criteria by which the City should be guided in a future transaction involving the ownership of Burlington Telecom. We invite you to join the discussion and share your thoughts at the next public meeting:

Wednesday, December 9
City Hall, Contois Auditorium
5:30 – 7:00 pm

A survey that allows respondents to rank the relative importance of different community goals in connection with Burlington Telecom is available on the City’s website at http://www.btcriteria.com/.

Minutes from prior public meetings soliciting input on sale criteria are available here: http://www.burlingtontelecom.net/burlington-telecom-advisory-board/.

Interested participants may also tune in to live broadcast from Channel 17: https://www.cctv.org/tags/burlington-telecom-advisory-board.

These public meetings and survey are intended to gather feedback from the Burlington community to inform the Burlington Telecom Advisory Board (BTAB). Your comments will be considered as the BTAB creates a recommendation regarding these criteria to be presented to the City Council for review and approval. The current schedule, which is subject to change, is for the BTAB to hold a public meeting in early January to review the draft recommendation, which will then be presented (as revised based on public comments) to the City Council for approval at its January 25, 2016 meeting.
