Summary
Dimmit County Commissioners approved construction of a 205‑foot self‑support wireless tower at 554 3rd Street in Asherton, presented by Cole Talbot of Branget Towers; the tower will host T‑Mobile as anchor tenant and is designed to accept up to three additional carriers.
Dimmit County Commissioners voted to approve construction of a 205‑foot self‑support communications tower at 554 3rd Street on the east side of Asherton.
Cole Talbot, site development agent for Branget Towers, explained the project and said T‑Mobile would be the anchor tenant; the structure was designed for collocation so Verizon, AT&T or rural internet providers could add equipment later. Talbot provided a site address and said construction drawings and a site survey were submitted to the clerk’s office.
Commission discussion confirmed only one tower structure is proposed at this site and that the tower is designed for multiple carriers to collocate antennas. A motion to approve was moved by Commissioner Mendoza and seconded by Commissioner Reynoso Garuana; the court recorded 'All in favor? Aye' and the motion carried.
The clerk’s office was identified as the point of contact for next steps, including any additional applications that the company must submit for final permitting and to receive minutes and instructions after approval.
Next steps: Branget Towers will receive the minutes, and the applicant was advised to coordinate with the county clerk’s office about any remaining application steps or follow‑up filings prior to construction.
