County 9 prepares for fiber optic cable installation near Caraville

The Williams County Board of County Commissioners convened on May 6, 2025, to discuss several key agenda items, including infrastructure projects and utility installations.

The meeting began with a discussion regarding a fiber optic cable installation along County Road 9, specifically a parallel route at Caraville. The commissioners addressed the implications of this installation, noting that if future roadwork were to occur in that area, it would be the responsibility of the utility company to relocate the cable in a timely manner. This emphasis on timely relocation was highlighted as a critical point in the discussion.

Following this, the board opened the floor for questions regarding the fiber optic project. After addressing inquiries, the commissioners moved towards formalizing their decisions with a request for a motion to proceed.

Overall, the meeting focused on ensuring that infrastructure developments align with future roadwork plans, emphasizing the importance of coordination between utility companies and county projects. Further actions and follow-ups will be determined as the projects progress.
