Council allows one‑year free tower use to King Networks; park board seeks volunteers and considers locks/fees
Summary
Council agreed to allow King Networks to use the village tower free for one year pending later review; Mayor Valinda Hammons said the park board needs volunteers and reported Vanguard may offer a tour in May.
Council discussed an offer from King Networks to use the village tower. Village Administrator Aaron Flora updated council and the council decided to permit the company to use the tower free for one year, with a subsequent review before any fee is charged.
Mayor Valinda Hammons also told council the park board "needs volunteers" and discussed park security and fee options, including a wireless or combination lock and the possibility of raising rates and requiring a deposit. Hammons also said Vanguard is "hoping to offer a tour in May" and currently has two employees. No firm decisions on park locks or fee changes were recorded; council discussion indicated staff should return with more details if changes are pursued.
The one‑year free tower use is structured as a trial period to be reviewed by council, and the park-board items were left for further consideration and staff follow-up.
