Jamestown City Council will vote tonight on creating a new division at the Jamestown Board of Public Utilities.
A public hearing will first be held at 5:45pm on the local law to create a Digital Services Division. The new division would own, operate and maintain the utility’s open-access fiber network and support future digital infrastructure initiatives.

The public hearing will take place in the 2nd floor City Council Chambers in City Hall. It’s open to the public and will be livestreamed on jamestownny.gov
Council will then vote on the local law under unfinished business on the agenda.

The voting session will take place at 7:30 p.m. in Council Chambers. All meetings are open to the public and will be livestreamed on jamestownny.gov.
