8 INTRODUCTION STATE POLICY RECOMMENDATIONS

9 INTRODUCTION STATE POLICY RECOMMENDATIONS P. 51

10 RECOMMENDATION 1.1 INTRODUCTION The State should create and fund an Office of Broadband Coordination, which will have the responsibility of overseeing implementation of the various recommendations of this State Technology Action Plan, in consultation with the Nevada State Broadband Task Force. Mission and Mandate: Identify and help secure federal and other funding for access, adoption, and use projects (such as federal grants). Establish expectations for broadband service in the state. Help eliminate redundancies in state governance regarding broadband. Help transition state government to VoIP and other broadband-enabled technology. Develop state consortium buying policies that will facilitate broadband investment and lower costs. Help ensure that state policy works closely with federal broadband policy initiatives, such as the Connect America Fund and Mobility Fund.

11 RECOMMENDATION 1.1 INTRODUCTION The Office of Broadband Coordination will aid Nevada in a multitude of ways including serving as a liaison among numerous state entities in order to ensure broadband is being utilized and expanded in the most efficient manner possible.

12 INTRODUCTION RECOMMENDATION 1.1

13 MAPPING LOCAL BROADBAND RECOMMENDATIONS PROJECTS AND INITIATIVES INTRODUCTION

14 MAPPING LOCAL BROADBAND RECOMMENDATIONS PROJECTS BROADBAND AND INITIATIVES GIS CAPACITY INTRODUCTION The Plan outlines a number of applications where state GIS analysis capability can promote the access, adoption, and use of broadband technology in the state, including: o Infrastructure for institutional needs o Support collaborative, coordinated, targeted process between industry and public sector o Facilitate and lower cost of infrastructure investment o Include other data (industrial zones) to facilitate growth o Method to target state initiatives (public safety, rural telemedicine, education) In contrast, FCC broadband mapping will be: o Limited to retail broadband offerings o Not include any infrastructure information o Not necessarily available to public and state in useful or timely format

15 MAPPING LOCAL BROADBAND RECOMMENDATIONS PROJECTS BROADBAND AND INITIATIVES GIS CAPACITY INTRODUCTION One example of [the Nevada] approach is the targeted information and support Connect Nevada provided to the Governor s Telemedicine Working Group.... [T]here are similar needs in Nevada for public safety broadband infrastructure, vertical assets, and economic development opportunities. Because the FCC will only collect advertised retail service availability, even if that data were to be made available to Nevada, that data would not support those important state needs for infrastructure planning and economic development. Nevada Plan, Recommendation 1.1
