A Hutterite colony in the municipality of North Norfolk will soon be linked to a fibre optic network. Mayor Neil Christoffersen says folks from the Baker colony asked council at their last meeting to grant an easement along one of the municipality's right-of-ways, noting they want to run a fibre optic cable to hook up to the Hutterian Brethren network. Christoffersen says the cable will provide internet service to the colony's school and will eventually connect them to several different colonies in the region. He notes the fibre optic will run west through the municipality and hook up to a colony out in North Cypress, adding in the next stage the cable will also go up to the Hidden Valley colony near Austin.
