Corn Belt Telephone General Manager Lee Wuebker spoke of their 100 year history of serving Sac County in Telecom, being a leader in bringing Fiber to the Home in Wall Lake, Lake View and now Sac City and how pleased CBT is to be helping grow Eastern Sac County with the help of Sac County Economic Tourism and Development, Mayor Druivenga, the City of Wall Lake and others.  CBT is familiar with projects like this.  In 2007, Corn Belt Telephone built the building that houses Hallett Materials in Wall Lake, another example of how Broadband leads to economic development.

 

Corn Belt Telephone is excited about this new development, the jobs and services that will be coming to Sac County, and are happy to share with the community news of the project’s advancements in the near future.
