This project was the first approved fiber permit under Tempe's new Fiber License and Right-of-Way Use agreement. The permit was created by Tempe City Council last fall to encourage all internet service providers to increase the availability of low-cost, high-speed internet in Tempe.

Councilmember Randy Keating, who has been part of Tempe's effort to bring Google Fiber to the city since 2017, said "Google Fiber is a perfect match for Tempe, I am proud of the work that's been accomplished to bring it to our community."

"High-speed internet access everywhere in our city ensures equal access to opportunities for everyone," said Councilmember Berdetta Hodge. "Google Fiber will make it possible for more people to benefit from technology. I can see how it will help everyone from students to our seniors."
