The mild winter weather has allowed for an early start to MLEC Fiber construction and installation. We have three projects in progress, making MLEC Fiber Internet available to an additional 1,250 homes and businesses!
McGrath Area
Construction is wrapping up on the 100-mile fiber project, passing over 500 homes in the McGrath area. This project was in partnership with Aitkin County Government and was funded by the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development Community Development Block Grant (CDBG). Installations have started and soon new customers will have access to the fastest and most reliable Internet service available.
Phase 6
Construction is starting soon on the Phase 6 project. This 60-mile project will pass over 270 homes and businesses in Spencer, Kimberly, Nordland, and Glen townships. Funding for the project comes from the Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED).
Reconnect 3
Construction will continue on the USDA Reconnect 3 project located in Crow Wing County in the townships of Bay Lake, Deerwood and Rabbit Lake. This project is divided into two parts and will build over 77 miles of fiber passing over 480 homes.
