The Dayton Housing Authority is proud to announce a new
initiative with Cincinnati Bell Inc. to provide complimentary
high-speed Internet to approximately 143 residents in its housing
community in Dayton.
In partnership with the Dayton Housing Authority, Cincinnati
Bell’s UniCity Smart City program will provide free Internet
connectivity via WiFi to the residents of Jamestown Village, a
45-unit affordable housing community in Dayton, Kentucky. The
Cincinnati Bell WiFi network will deliver Internet speeds that
support remote learning, remote work, and telehealth applications
for residents of Jamestown Village.
“We are extremely excited to have the ability to offer this
service to the residents of the Dayton Housing Authority,” said
Gordon Henry, executive director of the Dayton Housing Authority.
“It has become even more obvious during the pandemic that
accessibility is absolutely vital in today’s world. The goal is to
improve the quality of life for our residents, and we hope that
this will be a building block for more projects and enhancements to
come to our housing community.”
Cincinnati Bell’s UniCity practice has announced similar
partnerships with organizations including the Housing Authority of
Covington and Greater Dayton Premier Management over the past year.
UniCity also has Smart City partnerships with the City of Wyoming,
City of Fairborn, City of Covington, Dayton’s Oregon District,
Village of Lockland, Montgomery County, City of Loveland, and Boone
County.
Jason Praeter, President and General Manager of Cincinnati
Bell’s Entertainment & Communications business, said these
partnerships align with Cincinnati Bell’s commitment to increasing
digital equity in the markets it serves.
“Digital equity ultimately comes down to providing universal
access and opportunity through connectivity,” Praeter said. “As a
result of the partnership we’re announcing today, more Dayton
Housing Authority residents will have access to educational tools,
job opportunities, and health-care resources.”
