"22­43.7­107.  Technology grants. NOTWITHSTANDING ANY OTHER PROVISION TO THE CONTRARY, FOR THE PURPOSE OF AWARDING GRANTS FOR PROJECTS TO INCORPORATE TECHNOLOGY INTO THE EDUCATIONAL ENVIRONMENT PURSUANT TO SECTION 22­43.7­105 (5) (e), THE STATE BOARD MAY AWARD GRANTS TO SCHOOL DISTRICTS OR OTHER POLITICAL SUBDIVISIONS OF THE STATE FOR APPLICATIONS THAT HAVE BEEN APPROVED BY THE COLORADO ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY INSTITUTE COMMISSION, CREATED IN ARTICLE 11 OF TITLE 23, C.R.S., THROUGH THE COMMUNITY­BASED ACCESS GRANT PROGRAM ESTABLISHED UNDER SECTION 23­11­104.5, C.R.S.

SECTION 2.  Article 11 of title 23, Colorado Revised Statutes, is amended BY THE ADDITION OF A NEW SECTION to read:

23­11­104.5.  Community­based access grant program ­ additional powers and duties of commission. (1) (a)  THE COMMISSION SHALL ESTABLISH A COMMUNITY­BASED ACCESS GRANT PROGRAM UNDER WHICH THE COMMISSION SHALL APPROVE APPLICATIONS FOR GRANTS TO COMMUNITIES SUBMITTING PROPOSALS TO CONNECT PUBLIC OFFICES WITHIN THE COMMUNITY TO THE DIGITAL NETWORK OPERATED BY THE DEPARTMENT OF PERSONNEL PURSUANT TO ARTICLE 30 OF TITLE 24, C.R.S. TO QUALIFY FOR CONSIDERATION UNDER THIS SECTION, PROPOSALS SHALL LIST ALL PUBLIC OFFICES IN THE COMMUNITY AND, AS TO EACH SUCH PUBLIC OFFICE, SHALL SPECIFY WHETHER OR NOT THE PUBLIC OFFICE IS TO BE CONNECTED UNDER THE PROPOSAL. APPROVED APPLICATIONS SHALL BE SUBMITTED TO THE STATE BOARD OF EDUCATION TO BE CONSIDERED FOR A GRANT AWARD PURSUANT TO SECTION 24­43.7­107, C.R.S.

(b) (I)  FOR PURPOSES OF THIS SECTION, THE TERM "PUBLIC OFFICE" INCLUDES EVERY BUILDING, OFFICE, AND FACILITY THAT IS PHYSICALLY LOCATED WITHIN THE GEOGRAPHIC BOUNDARIES OF THE COMMUNITY AND IS OWNED OR OPERATED BY:

(A)  AN AGENCY OR POLITICAL SUBDIVISION OF THE STATE OR OF ANY LOCAL GOVERNMENT; OR

(B)  A NONPROFIT ENTITY ORGANIZED FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, LIBRARY, HEALTH CARE, SOCIAL SERVICE, HISTORICAL, EDUCATIONAL, OR CULTURAL PURPOSES.

(II)  "PUBLIC OFFICE" ALSO INCLUDES, BUT IS NOT LIMITED TO, STATE AGENCY OFFICES, PUBLIC SCHOOLS, LIBRARIES, AND COUNTY AND MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT OFFICES.


HB 98-1231


(Cont.)

(2)  PROPOSALS SUBMITTED FOR CONSIDERATION UNDER SUBSECTION (1) OF THIS SECTION SHALL BE EVALUATED ON A COMPETITIVE BASIS; EXCEPT THAT NO COMMUNITY MAY BE AWARDED MORE THAN ONE GRANT. THE OVERALL PROPOSAL PROCESS SHALL BE CONDUCTED WITH THE GOAL OF SEEING THAT EVERY COMMUNITY RECEIVES A GRANT UNDER THIS PROGRAM WHEN ITS PROPOSAL IS OF HIGH QUALITY AND COMPETITIVE WITH THOSE OF COMMUNITIES OF COMPARABLE SIZE AND CHARACTERISTICS. THE COMMISSION SHALL GIVE FAVORABLE CONSIDERATION TO THOSE COMMUNITIES PROPOSING TO AGGREGATE THE TRAFFIC OF, AND INCLUDE THE HIGHEST PARTICIPATION FROM, THE TOTAL NUMBER OF PUBLIC OFFICES WITHIN THE COMMUNITY.

(3)  GRANTS SHALL BE APPROVED ONLY FOR CAPITAL COSTS OF EQUIPMENT AND SERVICES FOR PROVIDING DEDICATED NETWORK CONNECTIVITY FOR THE PUBLIC OFFICES CONCERNED. END USER EQUIPMENT, APPLICATIONS DEVELOPMENT, MAINTENANCE, TRAINING, AND OTHER SUCH COSTS WILL BE BORNE BY EACH INDIVIDUAL PUBLIC OFFICE OR ORGANIZATION. GRANT MONEYS SHALL BE DISBURSED ONLY TO A FISCAL AGENT THAT IS A POLITICAL SUBDIVISION OF THE STATE.

(4)  THE COMMISSION MAY USE MONEYS MADE AVAILABLE TO THE COMMISSION TO PROVIDE COMMUNITIES WITH SUFFICIENT TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE, TRAINING, ENGINEERING, AND CONSULTING TO PREPARE PLANS, PROGRAM DOCUMENTS, LIFE­CYCLE COST STUDIES, AND OTHER STUDIES ASSOCIATED WITH AND NECESSARY FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF PROPOSALS UNDER THIS SECTION.

(5)  IN CONSIDERING PROPOSALS AND APPROVING GRANT APPLICATIONS UNDER THIS SECTION, THE COMMISSION SHALL BE GUIDED BY THE FOLLOWING PRECEPTS:

(a)  A COMMUNITY EXISTS AS A WHOLE AND SEAMLESS FABRIC, NOT AS SEPARATE THREADS, AND A WELL­PLANNED APPROACH TO PUBLIC SECTOR CONNECTIVITY SHOULD RECOGNIZE THIS. THEREFORE, SUCCESSFUL PROPOSALS SHOULD ADDRESS ALL PUBLIC SECTORS IN TOTALITY AND NOT SEPARATELY AS INDIVIDUAL PUBLIC SECTORS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, TRANSPORTATION, EDUCATION, LOCAL GOVERNMENT, AND HEALTH CARE SECTORS. FURTHER, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE PRINCIPLE THAT THE MOST EFFECTIVE DECISIONS ARE MADE BY THAT LEVEL OF GOVERNMENT CLOSEST TO THE PEOPLE, THE COMMISSION SHOULD FAVOR PROPOSALS UNDER WHICH IMPLEMENTATION AT THE COMMUNITY LEVEL IS ACCOMPLISHED THROUGH A COMMUNITY­BASED INITIATIVE.

(b)  A PROGRAM TO ADDRESS PUBLIC SECTOR CONNECTIVITY SHOULD NOT ONLY ADDRESS EACH COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE, BUT SHOULD COMPREHENSIVELY ADDRESS ALL COMMUNITIES WITHIN THE STATE. THE GOAL SHOULD BE TO CONNECT PUBLIC OFFICES IN ALL COMMUNITIES DURING ROUGHLY THE SAME PERIOD OF TIME, AVOIDING A SITUATION IN WHICH SOME COMMUNITIES ARE INFORMATION "HAVES" AND OTHERS ARE INFORMATION "HAVE­NOTS".

(c)  FOR EACH COMMUNITY TO BENEFIT FROM ACCESS TO THE INFORMATION INFRASTRUCTURE, THERE SHOULD BE A COMMON NETWORK FOR COMMUNITIES TO CONNECT TO. THE BASIS FOR THIS COMMON NETWORK EXISTS TODAY IN THAT THE STATE HAS ESTABLISHED AND CONTINUES TO DEVELOP DIGITAL NETWORKS WITH NUMEROUS POINTS OF PRESENCE THROUGHOUT THE STATE CAPABLE OF CARRYING TRAFFIC OF NOT ONLY STATE AGENCIES, BUT ALL REMAINING PUBLIC FUNCTIONS OF THE STATE AND ITS POLITICAL SUBDIVISIONS.

(d)  BY AGGREGATING DEMAND, THE STATE AND COMMUNITIES CAN INCREASE THEIR PURCHASING POWER AND THEIR ABILITY TO STIMULATE PRIVATE­SECTOR INVESTMENT IN TELECOMMUNICATIONS INFRASTRUCTURE. SUCH INVESTMENT WILL NOT ONLY MEET THE NEEDS OF THE PUBLIC SECTOR, BUT ALSO PROVIDE RESIDUAL CAPACITY TO BENEFIT PRIVATE CITIZENS AND BUSINESSES. THUS, COMMUNITIES AND THE STATE CAN ACT TOGETHER AS "ANCHOR TENANTS" IN STIMULATING PRIVATE­ SECTOR ACTIVITY IN THIS AREA FOR THE BENEFIT OF ALL.".
