Kentucky Announces $20M in Grants for High-Speed Internet

Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear (D) announced $20 million in grants to ISPs to pay for utility pole replacement. The money must be used to expand high-speed internet access in unserved areas. “By reimbursing a portion of utility pole replacement costs needed to support high-speed internet expansion, we can help bring that internet service to more individuals, businesses and communities across Kentucky,” said Beshear. The application window opens Thursday.
