Georgia Broadband Ready Community Certification

The purpose of the Broadband Ready Community Certification is for a community to demonstrate that a local unit of government has taken steps to reduce obstacles to broadband infrastructure investment. Any local government that has amended their comprehensive plan to include the promotion of the deployment broadband services and has adopted a model ordinance is eligible to apply for a Broadband Ready Community Designation (O.C.G.A §50-40-40).

Local Comprehensive Plan: The purpose of a community amending their comprehensive plan to include a broadband element is to ensure that a community adopts a strategy that demonstrates the promotion of broadband within the community. The Georgia Department of Community Affairs (DCA) has developed and approved the rules for the new element required for a community to include in their comprehensive plan. The rules are being communicated to local governments and Regional Commissions. Plans must include the update prior to being eligible to apply for a Broadband Ready Community Designation.
