Jacksonville council seeks more information on potential cell tower; asks Verizon and Vertical Bridge to return
Summary
Planning Director Ian Foster briefed the council on a potential cell tower in Jacksonville. Councilors directed staff to invite representatives from Verizon Wireless and Vertical Bridge to a future work session for additional information.
At the Feb. 17 work session, Planning Director Ian Foster spoke to the council about a potential cell tower within Jacksonville. The discussion was preliminary, focused on gathering information rather than taking action.
Councilors asked questions and elected to request that Verizon Wireless and Vertical Bridge attend a future work session to provide more details to the council. No applications, permits, formal motions or votes on siting were recorded in the minutes; the item was scheduled for further information gathering.
The council's direction was procedural: invite private-sector representatives back to answer technical and siting questions so councilors can evaluate project details at a later meeting.
