I live on Hickory Hollow Road, a vibrant, growing neighborhood where the need for reliable, high-speed internet connectivity is critical, yet neglected. With the rise of new houses in our locality, the demand for stable internet services is higher than ever before. Our internet connection is currently too slow and unstable, hindering businesses conducted from our homes.

Furthermore, as a parent of a special needs infant, the requirement for a good internet connection is a matter of necessity rather than leisure. Dependable internet service is crucial for operating specific medical equipment that ensures a healthy life for my child. The Windstream Fiber Internet service that we are seeking is readily available just two blocks away on this same road.

According to the Federal Communications Commission (2019), access to high-speed, reliable internet is indispensable for economic growth, job creation, and global competitiveness. Our plea to Windstream Fiber Internet is simple: please extend the scope of your services to Hickory Hollow Road. By doing so, you will not only help businesses thrive but also ensure that my child - and others like them - can rely on the care they need from medical tools that demand a stable internet connection.

Therefore, we urge the appropriate authorities at Windstream and other stakeholders to take our appeal seriously. Let's ensure that Hickory Hollow Road does not get left behind in this digital age. Make access to robust, high-speed internet services not an exception but the norm in our community. Please sign this petition and support our cause.
