Township Residents
Paul Bunyan has begun the superstructure for fiber broadband in Field Township plus some areas of Alango along the Leander Road and Linden Grove along the Carpenter Road and Wien Road. Look for survey stakes with an orange ribbon attached. If you have one of these at the end of your driveway, you are planned to get a junction box.
Just because you see the junction box it does not mean you are signed up to get Paul Bunyan. They plan to mail recorded residents but to insure you are on the list, please check this address:

If you are on the list to have a junction box, your address will show up when you type it in. From there you will find an involved sign-up. Paul Bunyan is similar to Lake Country Power - you gain capital credits from usage and so payment information must be properly recorded for tax purposes. Be aware there is a lot of persoal information needed. If you would rather do the signup in person, the link will give a number to call.
It will take all summer to get the main lines installed before they begin home installation.
