Nearly 300 homes in Unicoi County could soon have access to fiber optic broadband, which would mean the high-speed internet service would be available to everyone in the county. The Erwin Utilities Authority already provides fiber optic broadband to all of its customers, but there were three areas in Unicoi County serviced by other electric systems. After requests for service in those areas, the utility authority began the process of approval to provide broadband outside its designated coverage area. Much like cable companies, utility companies have boundaries within which their services can be offered. “There’s a plan in place for all the county (to have broadband) except three pockets and we don’t think it’s fair to the residents there,” President and CEO of Erwin Utilities Lee Brown said last week to the Town of Unicoi aldermen meeting.
