CTC Technology & Energy congratulates Ken Fellman on his appointment to the FCC’s Intergovernmental Advisory Committee (IAC). Mr. Fellman was chosen to participate based on his current role as City Attorney for the City of Cherry Hills Village, Colorado. Mr. Fellman has extensive experience in municipal government, having served on the City Council and as Mayor for Arvada, Colorado. Mr. Fellman is a dedicated public servant and will help provide valuable insight for how the FCC and municipal, local, and state governments can best work together.

The principal focus of the Committee during its upcoming two-year term will be the implementation of expanded broadband adoption and deployment, pursuant to the FCC’s National Broadband Plan. The Committee may also focus on such issues as improved public safety communications, facilities siting, universal service reform, and public rights-of-way.

The IAC held its first meeting on December 2, 2011 at the FCC’s headquarters in Washington, D.C.
