In a recent government meeting, discussions centered around the proposed installation of a new cell tower in the area near Gold Canyon and Superstition Mountain. Reports from mobile users indicated poor service quality, particularly for AT&T subscribers, in the vicinity of the proposed site. T-Mobile's coverage maps corroborated these findings, showing significant gaps in service in the area.

The meeting included a public hearing where community members expressed their opposition to the cell tower project. Seven speakers registered to voice their concerns, highlighting the potential negative impact on the local environment and quality of life.

In light of the legal complexities surrounding the cell tower issue, a motion was made to enter an executive session for further discussion. The motion was approved unanimously. Following the executive session, the public hearing commenced, allowing residents to share their perspectives on the matter.

One speaker, Dr. George Kadambay, a retired chronic pain specialist, emphasized his appreciation for the natural beauty of the region and the peace it brings, suggesting that the proposed tower could disrupt the tranquility of the area.

The meeting underscored the community's apprehension regarding the cell tower installation, with ongoing discussions expected as the board considers the implications of the project.
