100% Broadband Coverage in Schoharie County

Schoharie County is poised for a digital revolution. The federal government passed the 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) to close the remaining high-speed broadband gaps nationwide. Mobilizing Schoharie County American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds, a broadband impact report, and a refreshed 2015 broadband feasibility study have been summarized below. The goal is to achieve 100% broadband access in Schoharie County by 2027. 

On Friday, October 18th, the Schoharie County government accepted a $30 million Municipal Infrastructure Program grant from the NYS ConnectALL office. That means Schoharie County will have 100% access to high-speed internet by December 2026.
