Summary

The board reviewed a roof installation for Bell Atlantic Mobile Systems at 681 Trapp Hill Road in Stowe, found it consistent with the regional plan as a colocation using stealth chimneys, and directed staff to notify the PUC.

The PPR Committee reported a Bell Atlantic Mobile Systems roof installation at 681 Trapp Hill Road in Stowe that would use two stealth chimneys and an equipment platform to minimize visual impacts. Jeff Tilton said the project "conforms with the Regional Plan" and characterized it as a colocation rather than a new tower.

Jeff Tilton motioned that staff be directed to write a letter to the Public Utilities Commission indicating the Bell Atlantic Mobile Systems project at 681 Trapp Hill Road was in conformance with the Regional Plan; Judy Bickford seconded and the motion carried. The LCPC's action documents a conformance opinion for the PUC record but does not substitute for PUC review or permits.

The minutes do not list mitigation conditions or a vote breakdown beyond "motion carried." Neighbors or other stakeholders may submit comments to the PUC during its formal review.
