Current through Rules and Regulations filed through September 23, 2024

The purpose of the Achieving Connectivity Everywhere (ACE) Program is to amend Titles 32, 36 and 50 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated as the General Assembly recognizes that access to broadband services in today's society is essential to everyday life. Access to broadband services has been deemed a necessary service as fundamental as electricity, gas or phone service. There is a growing need for the government of this state to provide the much needed infrastructure to the homes and businesses without access to broadband services due to their location in rural and other unserved areas. Furthermore, the General Assembly declared that ensuring broadband services deployment will have a positive effect on education, health care, public safety, business and industry, government services, and leisure activities throughout the entire state. The General Assembly also finds and declares that guaranteeing an equitable deployment of broadband services throughout the state is a public necessity, one of the basic functions of government, and a benefit of the state.
