Meeker Cooperative Light & Power recently received a $19 million federal grant that will help expand its Vibrant Broadband service area in Meeker, Kandiyohi and Stearns counties.
While the news doesn’t seem to be good for Kandiyohi County in regard to receiving a major broadband grant from the National Telecommunications and Information Administration, the county continues to work with Meeker County to get a USDA ReConnect grant. The county is also still waiting for word on the state Border to Border grant.
