Hi Alex,
I would like to spearhead the efforts to get google fiber in our
community. I would like to attend the next community meeting you have to
discuss how I can move forward with the appropriate actions to get the ball
rolling. Please let me know when the next meeting will be held. Thank you!

We looked at getting Google Fiber installed in our neighborhood a few
years ago. We were able to get in touch with a lot of people who were
interested in getting it installed.
The problem was that Google was way too demanding with how they wanted to
install the product. They would only work on one building at a time, and
everyone in the building would need to be home for the same 1-2 days as
they went from attic to attic in sequential order. If a unit in the middle
of the building refused to participate or just didn't show up, then half of
the building just wouldn't get wired.
Ultimately, we got in touch with over 80 interested units, but with where
they were located, it would only allow access to get 40-50 units wired.
This was not enough for Google to be interested in our complex.
We basically gave up on the project and decided to wait for 5G. I'm
expecting that to happen sometime this year. We will then have one or more
alternatives to Comcast/Xfinity internet.
Of course, if anyone would like to spearhead getting Google Fiber
installed in our neighborhood, then I can give them the project documents
and they can try to resurrect the project. Perhaps the technology has
improved, and Google has found a better way to get our units wired, without
requiring everyone in a building to be at home at the same date and time.
Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex,
Since we have updated the call box and issued new mailbox keys - giving
us a clearer picture of home owners and renters in our community, could we
revisit getting google fiber for the community? What would it take? What
can I do to help?
Thanks,
Lisa Bird
