Bringing High-Speed Broadband to Charlottesville -- Here's How YOU Can Help

Charlottesville, Albemarle County and UVa are working together to bring high-speed Google fiber optic internet service to our community -- would be a 100 times faster connection than what's available now. It's a very competitive application process but winning it would be a big shot in the arm for our local economy, for our schools, for our arts & music scene, etc. We are preparing the official application but Google is also accepting nominations from individuals/businesses/organizations as to which community should be chosen. The more nominations they receive from Charlottesville-area residents, the better our chances. If you'd like to help us win the competition, please click on the link below and fill out the nomination form. Thanks!

I see Richmond is mounting its own campaign; “The city that wins this project will be recognized globally and the impact it will have is the technological equivalent of being awarded the Olympics,” said Mayor Dwight Jones in a press release.

Can we not get behind our city? Pass the word.
