I did say that we should postpone the article only because I was told the article would not accomplish what needed to be done. I am for moving ahead tonight. Both the schools and the library have had a fiber network in their technology plans for years. I do believe that the town should have a Technology Advisory Bd as it had in the past. We need people with expertise to help develop future plans as we had with our current technology plans.We have time to study the use of fiber in other town departments that can na also benefit from the infrastructures already in place elsewhere. The question is why now? The schools infrastructure is failing now. The lease plan will cost our residents little more than .01 per day. At least we would have the beginning of an infrastructure that is in place in many communities already use to provide services to the community.

Bad weather appears to cause outages in the network and someone now has to climb the hill to the water tower shack to investigate. Good thing it is not raining Re: Library & Schools fiber network  on Mon Jan 25, 2010 5:41 pm  seek2mend Dave wrote: Case in point: The Seekonk High School portion of the network is down today.

Good thing it is not raining As long as you get a quorum, I am sure it and everything else, will pass. Good luck!!

Most things did get approved, though the building committee warrant was tabled for more work. d   Library & Schools fiber network     Page 1 of 1 Permissions of this forum: You cannot reply to topics in this forum Seekonk Talks :: Local Seekonk Topics Seekonk Talks :: Local Seekonk Topics Free forums | Free forum support  | Contact  | Report an abuse  | Free forum
