So there's a long dormant subdivision just outside of town with just 2 houses (originally model homes I think) where Lennar is now selling lots and building houses. Looks like around 100 lots. The 2 existing houses are slated to get BEAD funding, but not the remaining 98.
What do you think will happen? It would be silly for the awardee to only build FTTH to the 2 locations. I would guess 100 potential customers all together, not the typical rural one house ever half mile, would be a no-brainer even without the subsidy. If BEAD is paying to build the main line and hook up 2 locations, it should be profitable to run duct, handholes and flowerpots to the rest of the lots using their own money. Or do you think they would go back to the state and renegotiate to get all the locations subsidized? Would BEAD have their finances stretched to the point where they don't want to do anything organically?
