WOODSFIELD Monroe County commissioners are considering holding a public forum to allow broadband providers to showcase services to residents in the county.
Commissioner Mick Schumacher said Monday that there are many different carriers that provide internet services in and around the county some that provide good service and some that do not.
He said commissioners want to help residents, from a cooperative standpoint, find good and reliable service.
Schumacher said a public showcasing of these services would allow residents the option to find what works best for them in the area where they live.
“Rather than anyone feel like we’re moving in on somebody’s territory, I think we should have a fair where each one (broadband providers) can set up a table and represent their business, and then have people talk about where they live and what kind of service they have and what they don’t have,” he said.
