Laurinburg (NC) Exchange (The) 12/22/2015 "City's fiber optics get look" Audience: 3,708 Source Website: www.laurinburgexchange.com LAURINBURG -- The Laurinburg City Council entered into a contract on Tuesday night with a communications consulting group in the hope of making the most of the city's existing fiber-optic network. The contract with ECC Technologies involves $19,800 in upfront costs for planning, but the group will primarily work on commission from the sale of the city's dark fiber to new users. According to ECC representatives at Tuesday's meeting, the city's fiber network, which creates a circuit near the perimeter of Scotland County, can offer services equal to those available in higher-demand areas through connection to the MCNC network, a statewide nonprofit network that includes a stretch between Charlotte and Wilmington. The fiber network can also be marketed to potential new industry as it allows the establishment of a connection for secure data transfer between locations. "We've talked about how fortunate we are to have this fiber, but I've never really fully appreciated what it really could bring to us," said Council member Drew Williamson. ECC will verify location of the existing fiber and determine its current usage level and its available capacity for new usage. The company will also identify cost-effective areas for expansion and potential customers near the existing network. "We never could figure out a way of marketing this or getting some revenue," said Council member Curtis Leak. "My point to you is that I want you to, basically, figure out a way of making us some money." Earlier on Tuesday, council met to swear in Leak and Council member Mary Jo Adams, who are both beginning new terms after their re-election last month. Adams was unanimously elected to serve as mayor pro tempore. Mayor-elect Matthew Block was unable to attend the swearing-in, citing medical reasons, and Mayor Tommy Parker will continue to serve in that role until Block can be sworn in. In other business, council approved the reallocation of $20,000 from the planning department's home demolition fund for use in a public art installation in the works for the empty lot at the corner of Church and Main streets, where Branch's Car Care once stood. Council already designated $35,000 for landscaping and art supplies for the UNC-Pembroke students whose art will be displayed there. The additional funds will be used for grading and drainage with a view to creating an all-weather space for public events. "We really envision this to be something more than just the art sculptures: a chance for children to be able to go out there and have classes... we could have public concerts, there are so many different uses," said community development director Teddy Warner. "We want to make sure that this is done right the first time." The landscaping and art installation on the lot are expected to be complete in May 2016. Warner also brought council up to date on a set of in-progress marketing projects, including a 1


partnership with the Laurinburg Downtown Revitalization Corporation and the Laurinburg-Scotland County Area Chamber of Commerce to produce an "On the Road with Cecil in Laurinburg" television program to air on WPDE, featuring downtown Laurinburg and other local attractions. "The idea of this from a marketing perspective is focusing on all the great things we've got to bring people here just to visit," Warner said. Mary Katherine Murphy can be reached at 910-506-3169.

MCNC's mission is to advance education, research, health care, public safety, and the overall levels of high-speed connectivity available in North Carolina by providing a world-class network necessary for innovation, collaboration, and economic development. NCREN Community Day provides a valuable opportunity to engage with influential North Carolina community leaders and network with constituents and peers from around the country. More than 200 top education and technology executives participated in a variety of networking discussions on the impacts of broadband towards innovation and entrepreneurship, leadership, health care, STEM education, MOOCs and distance learning, public safety, privacy, security, and information governance. MCNC serves the public good today by creating unprecedented levels of opportunity for North Carolinians on a world-class network, said MCNC President and CEO Jean Davis. It is this network and our skilled team running it every single day that is helping Create The Future of a connected and competitive North Carolina of tomorrow.

This recognition honors a devoted North Carolina leader who understood how technology could grow educational opportunity for all citizens and is annually presented to one or more persons who continually champion leadership, engagement, and support of MCNC's overarching mission and goals for North Carolina. The Empower Award was presented to Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute CIO Lamar Owen. When NCREN experienced considerable growth in 2008, the organization introduced the Empower Award to recognize individuals who were not long-time members of the NCREN Community but made an immediate impact upon engagement. Finally, Dr. Susan Peck, Distance Education Coordinator at the College of the Albemarle in Elizabeth City, was selected by her peers for the Community Choice Award. This award engages the NCREN membership from beginning to end, with input on nominees and recipients determined by the online voting.
