In a significant step toward increasing digital access for all residents, the Homestead Mayor and City Council approved a Resolution to expand WiFi to all City of Homestead parks. This new initiative will bring free, high-speed internet to 11 out of 13 public parks across the city, as well as to the William F. Dickinson Community Center and the Phichol Williams Community Center, supporting increased digital connectivity and access to online resources.
The "WiFi in the Parks" initiative is part of the City’s ongoing commitment to bridge the digital divide, ensuring that residents from all backgrounds have access to vital online resources. With reliable internet now available in Homestead's parks and community centers, students can complete assignments, job seekers can access employment opportunities, and families can stay connected—no matter their location.
“We are proud to expand digital accessibility in Homestead,” said Mayor Steve Losner. “This initiative aligns with our commitment to provide essential services that meet the needs of our community and foster growth and opportunity for all.”
The installation process will begin shortly, with a phased rollout planned to bring WiFi to parks and community centers in the coming months.
