Google is expanding its Google Fiber 1Gbps Internet and TV service to another U.S. city. The company announced it is teaming up with the Huntsville, Alabama city government on the venture.

Most of the time, Google is in charge of funding and building the fiber network needed for any city to add Google Fiber service. In this case, however it will be different as the city's Huntsville Utilities will actually fund and build the network and lease it to Google for its services. AL.com reports that the first Google Fiber connections should go live in Huntsville by mid-2017.
