“Lafayette Bucks National Trend On Successful Fiber Vote”

The Lafayette Chamber of Commerce posted its own news story about the referendum it endorsed:

The Chamber-backed Lafayette Utilities System proposal to provide fiber connectivity to the premise passed handsomely last weekend by a margin of 62 percent to 38 percent. Passage of the proposed project has gained national attention since other such propositions have failed due to intense opposition by large, private competitors.

The Chamber’s unanimous support was crucial in establishing the credibility of the project with the business community, as I noted at the time.
