The LPEA Board of Directors, at its regularly scheduled meeting (August 21st, 2019), approved the creation of the Broadband Committee, consistent with the Statement of Functions and Task List developed by the subcommittee over the past month.
The committee was established during the August Board of Directors meeting, with Director Kirsten Skeehan (District 1) and Dan Harms (Manager of Rates, Technology and Energy Policy) tasked to head up the newly-developed entity, including Directors Tim Wheeler (District 4), Guinn Unger (District 4) and LPEA staff Jessica Matlock (CEO) were appointed to the committee to analyze LPEA's broadband potential.

The full Board of Directors requires that for all scenarios, the committee must present a list of implications and effects (both positive and negative) for LPEA and its members. These implications could include possible risks, costs, benefits and legal and contractual obligations, as well as likely outcomes.
The committee does not have the authority to bind LPEA or commit LPEA to any course of action. Any vote or decision taken by the committee in fulfilling its duties and responsibilities shall only be for the purposes of fulfilling the assigned actions of the committee.
