Rep. Charity Grimm Krupa has announced that the Pennsylvania Broadband Development Authority (PBDA) will provide nearly $1.3 million to German Township. The funding is intended for an expansion of the municipal complex to address the growing need for high-speed broadband access.
The new facility will enable residents to engage in telework, telelearning, and telehealth services while also offering opportunities to enhance digital literacy. "For far too long, rural Pennsylvania has been left behind when it comes to high-speed internet access," stated Grimm Krupa. She added, "So many facets of our life work under a false assumption that everyone has broadband available at home. While we still have a long way to go, this project will give folks in German Township a reliable internet connection for whatever their needs may be."
The funds are sourced from PBDA’s Multi-Purpose Community Facilities Program, which supports community anchor institutions and local government units in projects aimed at constructing or improving public facilities.
