SOUTHWICK — Because Town Meeting voted down the borrowing needed to build a town-owned fiber optic network by 14 votes, the town is now moving forward with building a much smaller one using existing funding sources.
“We’re working with [Whip City Fiber] to finalize a much smaller kind of trial project while at the same time connecting under the existing funding structure that we have to connect some of our municipal facilities including the library, the schools, and DPW,” Select Board member Doug Moglin said during the board’s meeting Monday night.
