The Advance Colorado Broadband State & Local Dollars Grant Program (Advance-Local) will award state funding to middle mile, last mile and non-deployment projects. The Advance-Local program will complement federal broadband infrastructure programs and ensure we connect 99% of Colorado households to high-speed internet.
On Nov. 14, 2024, CBO hosted a webinar to discuss the key elements of the new Advance-Local grant program. Attendees used the opportunity to ask questions about the grant program and gain insights that will help you prepare your public comments.
