It hopes to sell its first bottle of distilled spirits in June. MORE MONEY STORIES Mark William Erwin has launched a crowdfunding campaign to start Cold Springs Distillery.

    November 3, 2017 Mr. Ajit Pai Chairman, Federal Communications Commission 445 12th Street, SW Washington, DC 20510 Dear Chairman Pai: As members of the nonpartisan organizations of the nation’s city and county officials, we write to urge you to work more closely with local governments to enhance broadband access and accelerate broadband infrastructure deployment. In particular, we write to urge you and the agency to more fully consider local perspectives in two Notices of Proposed Rulemaking/Notices of Inquiry titled “Accelerating Wireline/Wireless Broadband Deployment by Removing Barriers to Infrastructure Investment” (WT Docket Nos. 17-79 and WC Docket No. 17-84). We also request you provide for an appropriate level of local government representation on the Broadband Deployment Advisory Committee (BDAC), if this body is to be continued, so that local governments can have more input into both the BDAC’s and the Commission’s deliberations on matters such as these two rulemakings and other proceedings related to broadband deployment in the future. Specifically, we write at this time to request that going forward the Commission: • Protect local authority over rights-of-way, honor our Constitutionally guaranteed protection of fair compensation on the use of public assets, and maintain our Congressionally recognized right to govern the siting of cell towers and small cells in our communities; and • Address the perception that BDAC is solely interested in pursuing industry goals by making all meetings public, and sharing drafts of all BDAC
