Bath & Highland Join Forces to Create Network Authority
Bath County, Highland County, and the Town of Monterey will join together to form the Bath-Highland Network Authority. The group will facilitate the provision of affordable highspeed data, internet, and telecommunications services in the area. Broadband communications will foster economic development, improve educational opportunities, ensure public safety, and enhance the overall quality of life of residents.
The creation of this partnership was supported by a Virginia Telecommunication Initiative(VATI) grant through the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Development. The CSPDC provided project management and grant administration services.
