On 10 September 2013, 1,250 signatures were presented to the municipal council of Horst aan de Maas. These were collected by a citizen initiative that urged an investigation into the possibility of providing all addresses in the municipality with a high-quality broadband connection. As a result, the municipality has taken actions to explore the feasibility of this. In an earlier stage, Dialogic outlined various technical choices for the implementation of a broadband network. In the next phase, we will delve into the design of the business model and the choices made in that regard. The underlying report can be utilised by the client to further implement the project. In early February 2015, the municipal council decided to proceed with the practical assessment of implementing broadband in the rural areas of Horst aan de Maas.
