Bexar County, Texas, joined a growing group of governments Tuesday when commissioners signed an agreement with CIVIQ Smartscapes to install six Wi-Fi kiosks in San Antonio this summer.
The new kiosks — which cost the county $280,122 — will expand Wi-Fi offerings and serve a pilot of how the technology performs in the city’s downtown and Southside neighborhoods. Unlike New York and Chicago, the county is not using advertising to cover its costs because state law prohibits such an arrangement.
