City of Huntington Broadband Board
OVERVIEW
Many people in America, especially in Appalachia, face difficulties connecting to the internet. This digital divide perpetuates a long history of inequality in the region. To address this issue, the Huntington City Council established a high-speed internet service for all residents within the city and up to 20 miles beyond its boundaries. This service, known as the Huntington Broadband Utility, is owned by the City and managed by the Huntington Broadband Board.
The Huntington Broadband Board is chaired by the Mayor and includes two additional members appointed by the Mayor and approved by the City Council. An Executive Director also supports the Board's efforts.
