Hi Tom,

Looking forward to our meeting today. Could you resend the message below and attachment to the TRITLA folks to prime the discussion?

“PTRC is interested in a new opportunity known as the BAND NC Digital Inclusion program<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fiei.ncsu.edu%2Fband-nc%2F&data=02%7C01%7Ctomk%40cityofws.org%7C14094bdf63324942ea0208d8233bfad9%7Cc6051b73e60a4f458734a4c88ebaa3ee%7C0%7C1%7C637298087816023367&sdata=Fu4VC1elvok1m%2BjuXoaN0dhnVemPJ1mSd8xC7htTqZk%3D&reserved=0>. To visualize the areas this program will target, please visit their map here: Broadband Availability Map<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fbi.nc.gov%2Ft%2FDIT-Broadband%2Fviews%2F2017CountyIndices%2FBBADPStory%3F%3AisGuestRedirectFromVizportal%3Dy%26%3Aembed%3Dy&data=02%7C01%7Ctomk%40cityofws.org%7C14094bdf63324942ea0208d8233bfad9%7Cc6051b73e60a4f458734a4c88ebaa3ee%7C0%7C1%7C637298087816033366&sdata=HzRxEC0zs19uCXdjl2qyUjuV3tXhG7OyjxaYd1iPexk%3D&reserved=0>.

IEI will be awarding up to 30 $5,000 grants through August 31st on a first come first serve basis. We feel that as a regional council, this is an opportunity for us to apply for 4-5 counties/municipalities that need digital inclusion plans and coordinate digital inclusion at a cross-jurisdictional scale. When thinking about eligible partners, we would love to demonstrate a mix of urban and rural applicants who can trail-blaze digital inclusion for the region and then the state. To visualize what this might look like, here's the City of Charlotte's Digital Inclusion Playbook (Plan)<https://nam03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.charlottedigitalinclusionalliance.org%2Fplaybook.html&data=02%7C01%7Ctomk%40cityofws.org%7C14094bdf63324942ea0208d8233bfad9%7Cc6051b73e60a4f458734a4c88ebaa3ee%7C0%7C1%7C637298087816033366&sdata=mLA48%2BDlvsIv4tfIVZdyttb4PZAzJ%2BKyW800dRN5z0s%3D&reserved=0>.

Next spring there will be an implementation funding opportunity to build upon the planning efforts awarded during the current funding opportunity.”
