Ground broken on high-speed internet project in southern York County

Improved internet connectivity is the goal of a $21 million broadband expansion project in southern York County. Ground was broken Nov. 5 on the project that will bring high-speed fiber internet to nearly 3,000 homes and businesses in New Freedom, Railroad, Glen Rock, Seven Valleys and adjacent areas. York County commissioners, members of the YoCo Fiber Broadband Task Force and Talkie Communications officials were on hand for the groundbreaking on the project, which will take around 10 months to complete, according to a statement released by York County officials. “This project is about more than technology; it’s about connecting people and communities,” stated York County President Commissioner Julie Wheeler. “Broadband internet access is essential to ensuring our residents and businesses have the basic infrastructure they need to succeed." The partnership with Talkie Communications is part of York County's goal to close the digital divide countywide.

Part of York County farm rezoned for development

East Manchester Township officials voted 2-1 in favor of rezoning 59 acres, including a section of the Musser farm, to industrial and apartment/office districts. The board of supervisors listened to testimony from an attorney representing Kinsley Properties; Carolyn Musser Hall, the executor of the estate of Paul E. and Helen L. Musser; and township residents before making the decision. Supervisor Dean Kohr voted against it. The mixed-use proposal involves three parcels of land along Board and Zions View roads. The majority of the land belongs to the Musser estate while a smaller parcel is owned by KEII Board Road Residential LLC. Under the plan, about 34 acres adjacent to an existing industrial district will be rezoned as industrial. About 25 acres will be rezoned as apartment/office. Another portion, about 23 acres, will remain zoned as low-density residential. Hall thanked the public for sharing their memories of the family farm, but she said that farming the land is not a realistic long-term option. "This proposal is not about paving over the entire farm," she said. "It is a balanced mixed-use plan that reflects the realities of (today) while helping to meet the needs of tomorrow." Several residents spoke out against the
