Agri-Valley Services to bring high-speed internet to Peck; meeting Thursday

Agri-Valley Services, a local broadband internet provider, is working with the Village of Peck to plan and install a fiber internet network that will provide every home and business within the village with a connection to high-speed broadband internet. Company officials say it is particularly important because Peck is severely under-served for high-speed internet access.

Agri-Valley Services is hosting the town hall meeting at the Peck Community Center on Lorraine Street, Thursday evening, beginning at 6:30 p.m. Company officials will provide information about the coming fiber broadband internet project. Starting this summer, AVS will begin installation of a fiber-optic network throughout the village limits to provide broadband internet connectivity to residents and businesses.

Until now, the village has been significantly limited in its options for broadband internet providers. The addition of an “AVS FiberNet” fiber-optic broadband network will be a key enabler for economic growth within the community.

The purpose of this open house is to provide background on the project, educate on the importance of broadband connectivity, answer questions from the public, and to provide an update on infrastructure construction activities.
