Rep. Jonathan Fritz announced that the Pennsylvania Broadband Development Authority (PBDA) has allocated $787,322 to Liberty Township. This funding aims to address the critical need for broadband access in the area by establishing a centralized hub and rehabilitating Grange Hall.
“Rural Pennsylvania has been left behind when it comes to high-speed internet access,” Fritz stated. “So many facets of our life work under a false assumption that everyone has broadband available at home. While we still have a long way to go, this project will give residents in Liberty Township a reliable internet connection for whatever their needs may be.”
The funding is sourced from PBDA’s Multi-Purpose Community Facilities Program, which supports community anchor institutions and local government units in constructing, acquiring, or improving facilities open to the public.
