| Members:
As you all know we sent in our Broadband Survey results to the City of Cape Coral showing the extremely poor internet service we have in all areas of Northwest. We have been following this project very closely, based on several requests you've made to us over the last couple of years,
The City of Cape Coral is currently considering budget expenses for fiscal 2022 and deciding how much of the budget to specifically dedicate to the broadband needs of the residents. We need to make sure they keep the Broadband needs of the NWCape residents as high on their list as possible!
To make sure that happens, we need to act now! We need them to understand how important high-speed internet is to the residents especially in the NW Cape where most of us do not have a choice and have to endure extremely poor service if any, at times.
We need to have as many residents as possible speak during the 60 minutes of the Citizens Input portion of the meeting.
To take no action is not an option, so the NWNA is asking you to:
· Send in an email to the City Council and Mayor explaining to them how important it is to provide the necessary funds to ensure improvements can and will be made to give all residents access to high-speed internet.
· Show that you support this initiative by wearing your NWNA t-shirt or any green one and showing up at the next City Council meeting on August 18th in the council chambers.
· Speak at the next City Council Meeting and share your current issues with them. Citizens Input is usually at the very beginning of the meeting right after they take the roll call. Each person is allowed 3 minutes.
See you In Council Chambers on August 18th, @ 4:30 PM!
Thank You in Advance!
Linda Stevens, Secretary
