Kremer will be relocating to the Cedar Rapids area, so will no longer qualify to serve on the City of Vinton's Electric Board. Many thanks were given to Kremer after the announcement at the meeting Tuesday night.

More than 500 citizens have requested a site survey for their property, and we’ve received quite a few questions along with all the sign-ups. We have answered most questions by responding to the individual who asked it, and we’ve expanded our website’s FAQ section so everyone can see both the questions we’ve received and the answers.

VMEU (Vinton Municipal Electric Utility) continues to move forward into the planning and approval stages of the iVinton project. During the meeting the total sign ups were 479 people through the www.iVinton.com. These residents have agreed to have the conduit (think of it like pipes) run to your house so that if later you decide to sign up for the broadband services that will be offered in approximately July-August, they will simply be able to slide the fiber right into the conduit and connect it to your house.
