Imagine
a community that is totally connected... a Digital Amory... that fundamentally
transforms the way we live, work and play.
Instead of being tied to offices,
homes, or individual hot-spots, people have fast, convenient access to
information-and each other-from virtually any corner of our community.
Government agencies operate more
efficiently and productively by sharing information.
Emergency workers are better
informed and can respond more quickly.
Businesses become more productive,
increasing their competitive advantage in a global economy.
Citizens are more satisfied with
government and the quality of life in our community.
The purpose of the AmoryNet is to empower our community; provide
access to information technology resources; enable Amory to become competitive
in education, human development, workforce development, health care and economic
opportunity.
AmoryNet
presents a historic
opportunity for our community. The
deployment of the network provides our community a cutting edge advantage in our
recruitment of new industries and businesses. The network provides a
comprehensive delivery mechanism for education, public safety, and clearly puts
Amory in the forefront as the pioneer digital community in
Mississippi
and the southeast.
