Knology Groundbreaking

devLee — Wed, 31 Mar 2010 14:18:31 +0000

Thursday, April 1, 2010
1:30 p.m.
Tutton Hill Development (located off Hamilton Road)

-Below is the copy released by the Auburn Chamber. I would caution everyone from thinking this will kill charter or make them better or that Knology itself will answer all the issues but it is a giant step in the right direction.

Knology to Provide Data, Video and Voice Broadband Services to Auburn Residents and Businesses

(March 29, 2010) Auburn, Ala. — Competition in data, video and voice broadband services is coming to Auburn. A Knology groundbreaking event Thursday, April 1, will mark the start of the construction process in the Auburn area. By late summer or early fall Auburn residents and businesses will have access to Knology’s state-of-the-art data, video and voice services provided over the industry’s most advanced fiber network.

The first step to bring Knology to Auburn was when the Auburn City Council unanimously approved a non-exclusive cable franchise agreement with Knology. Network mapping and engineering analysis will begin April 5, with construction scheduled to start 60 to 90 days thereafter. The first customers are currently expected to begin using Knology services during late August or early September in the area south of the interstate along Moores Mill Road.

“This is a great opportunity for Knology to build a new broadband network in the Auburn area that will bring much needed choice to the market,” Royce Ard, general manager, Knology of Columbus, said. “Competition offers many benefits to consumers. Residents and businesses in Auburn will soon be able to choose Knology’s fiber-driven, high-speed Internet, digital cable and telephone technology, as well as experience our company-wide focus on exceptional customer service.”

“The Knology team is very excited to be bringing our services to Auburn,” M. Todd Holt, President and Chief Financial Officer of Knology, Inc., said. “There has been consistent demand from the Auburn area for choice in data, video, and voice services, and we are pleased, as a company, to be in a position to make this significant investment in the Auburn community.”

Knology’s leadership in the area is exemplified by a number of “firsts.” For example, in the Columbus and Montgomery markets, Knology was the first company to introduce high-speed Internet over broadband cable modem, digital cable TV and Video On Demand services, and offer the convenience of cable TV, telephone and Internet services from one company. In addition, Knology of Columbus, Montgomery and Valley have all received A-Plus ratings from the Better Business Bureau.

The Knology groundbreaking event with the Auburn Chamber of Commerce is set for 1:30 p.m. CDT on Thursday, April 1, at the Tutton Hill development, located off of Hamilton Road (next to the new Hamilton Place Shopping Center).

About Knology Knology, Inc. (NASDAQ: KNOL), headquartered in West Point, Georgia, is a leading provider of interactive communications and entertainment services. Knology serves residential and business customers with one of the most technologically advanced broadband networks in the country.

Auburn City Council to Consider Authorizing Assessment and Collection of Annual Ad Valorem Taxes April 21

devLee — Sat, 18 Apr 2009 14:11:20 +0000

Auburn, Ala. – The Auburn City Council will consider three ordinances authorizing the Lee County Revenue Commissioner to assess and collect City ad valorem (property) taxes at its Tuesday, April 21 meeting. These ordinances do not authorize a new tax or a tax increase, but instead authorize the assessment and collection of existing taxes. The City Council must authorize the County Revenue Commissioner to assess and collect the property taxes annually. Auburn’s property taxes total 26 mills and break down as follows:

5 mills – General Fund
5 mills – Special Five Mill Tax Fund
5 mills – Special Additional School Tax Fund
11 mills – Special School Tax Fund

Of the 26 mills assessed to Auburn property owners, 16 mills are legally restricted and must be used for education purposes, specifically to pay debt service on school debt or provide funds for school operations. The remaining 10 mills are split between the City of Auburn’s General Fund and the Special Five Mill Tax Fund. Revenue from the City’s General Fund provides monies for paving and maintaining roads; public safety services, such as police and fire protection; and community events such as the Annual Easter Egg Hunt, Bike Bash, and CityFest. General Fund revenues also provide infrastructure improvements such as traffic signals and bridges, new bike paths and sidewalks, and public safety facilities, such as fire stations. In addition to providing public services through its General Fund, the Auburn City Council appropriates funds to Auburn City Schools directly from the General Fund. The City Council has allocated $6,988,003 to Auburn’s school system for Fiscal Year 2009.

The City of Auburn utilizes a Special Five Mill Tax Fund for debt repayment on capital projects. All projects must be approved by Auburn voters. In January, Auburn citizens voted to use revenue from the Special Five Mill Tax Fund for $9 million in public works projects, including the Donahue Drive – Magnolia Avenue intersection improvements and the Frank Brown Recreation Center renovations. A complete list of projects is available online at www.auburnalabama.org/5mill. Previous Five Mill projects include the City of Auburn/Auburn University Yarbrough Tennis Center, the Auburn Public Library expansion, the Auburn Soccer Complex, Town Creek Park, and Town Creek Cemetery.

For more information, please contact Auburn City Hall at 501-7260.

Auburn Interactive Growth Model Receives Planning Award

devLee — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 03:00:59 +0000

Auburn, Ala. – The City of Auburn’s Interactive Growth Model received the Outstanding Planning Award for a Project/Program/Tool at the 2009 Alabama Chapter of the American Planning Association’s (ALAPA) annual meeting, held March 25 – 27 in Orange Beach, AL. The award recognized the Auburn Interactive Growth Model (AIGM) as a “significant advancement to the cause of planning.” The consulting firm of Van Buskirk, Ryffel and Associates, Inc. was also recognized for their efforts in developing the model.
In October 2006, the Auburn City Council authorized a resolution to contract with Van Buskirk, Ryffel and Associates, Inc. to develop an interactive growth model that would assist City staff in their comprehensive planning efforts. The model is driven by population growth projections in five year increments to “build-out” (the point at which the City is fully developed), rather than traditional 10 – 25 year forecasts. Consultants worked in tandem with City departments to create a model that provides City decision-makers with an accurate picture of future growth in the City. In 2009, City staff will continue work on the City of Auburn Comprehensive Plan, known as CompPlan 2030. While the model is currently being used to help evaluate zoning applications and land use decisions, City staff fully expects to incorporate the model as part of its comprehensive planning process. For more information, please contact the City of Auburn Planning Department at 501-3040.
