Text

(1)The general assembly hereby finds and declares that there is a lack of coordination among the various state agencies regarding the utilization of telecommunications facilities and services. The general assembly further finds that better coordination of such facilities and services, particularly among the governing boards of the institutions of higher education, the department of higher education, the department of education, and the school districts across the state, would result in improved education programs and a more cost-effective telecommunications system. The use of telecommunications services and facilities to expand educational opportunity, however, does not mean that the role of the teacher in the classroom should be diminished.

(1) The general assembly hereby finds
and declares that there is a lack of coordination among the various state agencies
regarding the utilization of telecommunications facilities and services. The general
assembly further finds that better coordination of such facilities and services,
particularly among the governing boards of the institutions of higher education, the
department of higher education, the department of education, and the school
districts across the state, would result in improved education programs and a more
cost-effective telecommunications system. The use of telecommunications services
and facilities to expand educational opportunity, however, does not mean that the
role of the teacher in the classroom should be diminished.

(2) The general assembly hereby finds that the development and use of a
statewide telecommunications network will accelerate economic development
within the state. The general assembly further finds that cooperation and
participation by medical and health facilities, public and private economic
development organizations, the judicial system, and local governments in
developing a statewide telecommunications network will facilitate expansion of
such network to its full potential and encourage economic growth and development
within Colorado.
