Dear LAHCF newsletter subscribers and neighborhood champions

LAHCF is excited to announce the launching of our biggest fiber build project yet - The Burke Extension.  This new project is about 3/4 mile along Fremont Rd between Fremont Pines Lane and Burke Rd.  LAHCF will be offering both 1-gigabit up/down and 10-gigabit up/down synchronous fiber Internet connection options to subscribers that are on this route or adjacent streets or cul-de-sacs along this route.  The 10 gigabit (10,000 megabits/sec) are probably some of the fastest residential Internet speeds available anywhere in the USA and the world.

To celebrate this milestone, the Burke Extension neighborhood champions, LAHCF board member and Next Level Networks helped to put some Installation signs in the ground at the corner of Old Altos and Burke and pose for a photo opp!

Contact LAHCF for more details and how to sign up and be connected while the backbone project is being constructed.  Initial designs and costs estimates for the backbone have been completed. Finalized designs and permits for this build are in progress.
 

This build is being funded by a slightly different model where 3 homeowners at the end of the build will initially fund for the full backbone construction costs.  They will be reimbursed later as more properties connect using the fiber backbone that they funded.  This is LAHCF's - mutual benefit corporation model,  for all subscribers to contribute to the cost of the subscriber fiber network.  


If you are on this route or close to this fiber route and wish to find out more information on connection costs, please visit the LAHCF website at https://www.lahcommunityfiber.org or email at lahcommunityfiber@gmail.com.

 

More information about the Burke Extension can be found on the website at https://lahcommunityfiber.org/burke-build/

If you want to be one of the Burke Extension neighborhood champions helping to organize folks along this route get connected, please let us know.  

Sincerely,


LAH Community Fiber and Next Level Networks

Rhus Ridge Neighborhood Project Connected

The Rhus Ridge neighborhood 13 property LAHCF build on Rhus Ridge  / Basset Lane /Summit Wood Rd has fully connected to all of the subscriber properties and running 1 gigabit or 10 gigabit service.  Final clean up details are being completed and the sign at the front of the street has been moved to new LAHCF builds in progress on other streets. For most users on this street, their only previous Internet options was a  much slower AT&T U-Verse.  Some residents on the street had attempted to get Comcast to come to their street for the past 15 years without success.  This private street and subdivision has mostly underground utilities from the 80's.  Comcast rarely offers new service installs on these private roads and under-grounded subdivisions - of which we have many similar situations in Los Altos Hills.    100% of our LAHCF member owned fiber infrastructure is underground. The Town of Los Altos Hills requirements for undergrounding of subdivisions starting in the 80's is one of the main reasons why many residents can not get Comcast cable service today.


Rhus Ridge LAHCF Connected Neighborhood

If you are looking to connect or be part of the next phase extension to this build on Rhus, Basset, La Loma or Summit Wood, please contact LAHCF.   The LAHCF network is planning expansions on Summit Wood/La Loma and off to Moody Road as well.
