(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.".
