New Haven, CT
Mayor Justin Elicker
On New Haven

On Next Century Cities
What New Haven is working on
“That so many Connecticut cities have joined this effort is heartening and confirms for me the pent-up demand for high-capacity digital connectivity in support of commerce, research, and 21st century life in our state,” said Mayor Harp. “I think this demonstrates the potential return on investment for a qualified supplier of next-generation infrastructure to drive economic growth and social progress in Connecticut.”
Mayor Harp testified about the need for ultra-high-speed Internet in New Haven and across Connecticut at a hearing in February 2015. New Haven also hosted a conference on “Moving towards a Gigabit State” in May 2015.
