WALKER COUNTY, Ga. Walker County officials say access to broadband service remains a problem for approximately 13% of the county’s population.
But a new plan is in the works to ensure the entire county is fully connected to the internet.
The Walker County Board of Commissioners recently announced the ‘Digital Connection Plan’.
They say the plan would create a special designation that would make the county eligible for state and federal grants.
Officials say these grants can reduce the cost of expanding broadband infrastructure in underserved areas.
On Monday night at the Walker County Civic Center, residents with connectivity concerns had a chance to make their voices heard.
“The three adults in my house can’t get online at the same time unless we have two providers. So I’m paying roughly $150-$160 a month.”
Residents in underserved areas of Walker County say they are fed up with their lack of internet connectivity.
“I wake up late at night just so I can do any kind of banking. Disgusting. We shouldn’t be in this shape.”
Jamie Hulsey says the quality of his wireless internet varies from day to day.
“We lose internet access two to three times a day, and it will vary when we get it back. It could be an hour, it could be two hours. We just don’t know.”
Hulsey says he has always relied on using the Internet for certain everyday tasks.
“We have our small businesses off the farm and it disrupts online bill paying and a lot of things that we’re used to.”
County commissioners say the Walker County Connection Plan will fix these gaps in problem areas.
The county is partnering with the Chattanooga Regional Thrive Partnership to make this plan possible.
It is part of a larger Appalachian Digital Accelerator program in partnership with Connect Humanity.
The program seeks to provide connection plans for Bradley County and Whitfield County in addition to Walker.
Shannon Millsaps with Thrive Regional Partnership says…
“Everything we do touches the Internet, right? School work, applying for a job, calling for dinner or having dinner delivered, taking care of the kids. It’s important for us to have access.”
Millsaps says the grant money will only go to underserved communities.
She adds that the money will go to internet providers, not the county.
Millsaps also says this plan is about more than just achieving sustainable connectivity in rural areas.
“It’s also important for us to consider affordability, required capabilities, convenience with cybersecurity and privacy concerns.”
Millsaps says this process is not quick.
“I think we will continue to be in this business for the next 5 to 7 years. I mean, let’s think we’re going to close our eyes and next year, when this money starts flowing, everybody in this county is going to be hooked. , it’s just not reality.”
Georgia recently received more than $1 billion in federal funding from the National Telecommunications and Information Administration.
The administration says the money helps support broadband grant initiatives across the state.

My name is Ahmet. I’m a bank staff in a Turkish bank. I’ve been looking for someone who has the same nationality as you. A citizen of your country died in the recent earthquake in Turkey, he had in our bank fixed deposit of $11.5 million.
My Bank management is yet to know of his death. If my bank executive finds out about his death ,They would use the funds for themselves and get richer and I would like to prevent that from happening only if I get your cooperation, I knew about it because I was his account manager. Last week my bank management held a meeting for the purpose of a bank audit to note the dormant and abandoned deposit accounts. I know this will happen and that’s why I’m looking for a solution to deal with this situation because if my bank discovers his death, they will divert the funds to the board of directors. I don’t want that to happen.
I request your cooperation to introduce you as the kin/heir of the account as you are of the same nationality as him. There is no risk; the transaction is carried out under a legal agreement that protects you from infringement. I suggest we split the funds, 60/40 and 40 for me. I need this fund for my daughter’s surgery so keep this info confidential. email me so i can provide you with more info ahmetaksoy1925@outlook.com

Hello
I hope this message finds you well. My name is Mathew Lundgren, and I am a Research Assistant in the Research and Development Department at Newton Laboratories Pro Ltd, a leading biopharmaceutical company based in London, England. I am reaching out to explore a potential partnership opportunity.
We are currently seeking a reliable business representative in your region to assist us in sourcing essential raw materials used in the production of high-quality antiviral vaccines, cancer treatments, and other life-saving pharmaceutical products. While this may be outside of your primary area of expertise, it offers a unique opportunity to diversify your business interests and generate additional income.
Our company has been actively searching for a reputable supplier but has yet to establish a direct source.
However, I have identified a local supplier who offers the necessary materials at a significantly lower cost compared to our previous purchases. This could present a mutually beneficial opportunity for both parties.
If you are interested in learning more about the profit structure and the specifics of this potential collaboration, please feel free to reach out.
I would be happy to provide additional details at your convenience.
