KUB Fiber is now available to all Knoxville Utilities Board (KUB) customers in Union County. KUB officials, along with Union County Mayor Jason Bailey and other state dignitaries, gathered at Union County High School on March 21 to celebrate the availability of high-speed internet to all KUB customers in Union County. KUB serves the southern half of the county which includes Maynardville, Plainview and Luttrell and their suburbs, indicated in blue on the map pictured. There are some in this area where high-speed internet was not available until this KUB Fiber rollout.
