Awards and Recommendations Process
Broadband infrastructure funding staff recommendations are issued for public comment as Draft Resolutions. Draft Resolutions are generally batched, and may contain multiple counties and multiple awards in each county. An application not recommended for award in an initial Resolution may be recommended for award in a later Resolution. In addition, some awards may qualify for ministerial approval, which means the award is delegated to staff and the project can be awarded without a Commission vote.
Ministerial awards and “Final Resolutions” adopted by the Commission are published above on this webpage.
