Decatur has completed the Google Fiber Cities Checklist, along with the other 8 metro Atlanta communities identified by Google for potential expansion.

In February, 2014, Google Fiber announced plans to explore expansion.  This announcement sparked an impressive collaborative effort in metro Atlanta, as well as within Decatur’s internal “Google Team” over the past 8 weeks.

Google’s primary strategy for gathering the necessary information is the Google Fiber City Checklist, which was due on May 1, 2014.  While the checklist does not request any form of special consideration, it has been an intensive process which required staff to critically evaluate the best strategies for streamlining the proposed project.
