2023 - If you are dependent on your landline phone service from AT&T, please contact the Nevada County Board of Supervisors per instructions below.

Background
Over the next six to seven years, AT&T will be discontinuing their traditional wireline phone service. This service is provided via an outdated copper-based network. AT&T says that moving away from the landline phone network will allow them to invest more resources in high-speed broadband infrastructure.

AT&T has asked the County of Nevada to help them identify and connect with any of their traditional landline phone customers who have no other voice service alternatives (including mobile/cell phone service). They understand the public safety hazard of having no phone service and want to maintain service for households in that situation.

How to get on the list
If your household depends on your AT&T landline service, please send an email to:
bdofsupervisors@nevadacountyca.gov and include:

• your street address
• your…
