The Fillmore County Planning Commission voted unanimously on April 21, 2014 to approve a conditional-use permit filed by Derek McGrew (Cellusite) for a self-supporting telecommunications tower in the Fairmont area.
During the hearing commissioners were told the tower would be approximately 210 feet tall, would not require guide wires and would sit on land leased under a 35-year agreement. The commission closed the hearing and approved the permit by roll call (Ayes: Kassik, Girmus, Waltrip, R. Noel, Most, Elznic, Harre).

The zoning office recorded the application as a conditional use for SE 1/4 13-8-3; implementation steps such as building permits or county inspections are not specified in the minutes.
