On the heels of a Federal Communications Commission (FCC) "Notice of Inquiry" (NOI) to examine rights-of-ways issues, the National League of Cities, NATOA, and the National Association of Counties have scheduled a webinar to discuss the implications of the NOI and what your community can do to help preserve local rights-of-way authority and compensation.
The FCC is seekinng information on how the agency can work with state, local, tribal and federal partners to improve policies for access to rights of way and wireless facility siting. The NOI seeks information and data regarding challenges, best practices, and educational efforts so the FCC can determine the need for policy and rules surrounding broadband deployment.
The webinar will discuss the implications of the NOI and what communities can do to help preserve local rights-of-way authority and compensation. Visit https://www2.gotomeeting.com/register/699497122 to register for this free event.
