Planning Board notes landfill wireless‑tower balloon test set for Aug. 20
Summary
Planner told the board that a visibility test (balloon/balloon‑test) for a proposed wireless tower at the landfill will take place on Aug. 20, with a rain date, and that full application materials will be posted to a future agenda.
The planning staff told the board that an application for a new wireless tower at the landfill has been received and that the applicant will conduct a balloon test so residents can observe visibility. The planner said the test is scheduled for Aug. 20 with a rain date; the planning team expects to post application materials and to bring the project to the board in September or later as required by the bylaw and notice schedule.
Planner described the test logistics and said residents can drive to vantage points around town to observe the balloon; the notice and crane/balloon test requirement stems from the zoning bylaw’s visibility and notice requirements. Staff advised interested board members that the public will be able to view the balloon during the scheduled observation window.
