Washington, D.C. - Congresswoman Elise Stefanik announced that she secured $1.5 million in funding for a Small Cell Cellular Deployment Project in Hamilton County.

“I am proud to announce that I secured $1.5 million for a Small Cell Cellular Deployment Project in Hamilton County in this year’s appropriations process. This funding will be used to support engineering and permitting, construction, and administration for the deployment of small-scale cell technology to help close communications gaps in the Adirondacks,” said Congresswoman Elise Stefanik.

"I wish to convey my thanks to the Congresswoman. What we have been experiencing this winter with communication issues around the county during inclement weather highlights the needs we have in our cell communications and our ability to explore all possible remedies. We could not do this without the continued support of Congresswoman Stefanik and her commitment to the people of her district,” said Hamilton County Board of Supervisors Chairman Brian Wells.
