City seeks WWU faculty and staff input on Google Fiber proposal; survey deadline is today, Feb. 24

City of Bellingham officials are evaluating Google’s Fiber For Communities initiative and are asking for quick-turnaround feedback from Western Washington University faculty and staff members and students about whether or not Google’s initiative should be pursued.

A survey posted on the city’s Web site through Feb. 24 asks community members if the city should pursue this project, and if so, why.

Google recently announced plans to test ultra-high speed broadband networks in one or more trial locations across the country. Google officials have asked interested municipalities to provide information to help them decide where to build their network.
