County approves Verizon antenna replacement at local tower
Summary
The commission approved a Planning Department-recommended modification to replace antennas on a local cell tower; Planning Director Terri Kester said land agreements are on file and the item was recommended by the Planning Commission.
Planning Director Terri Kester presented a request from Kristen Swenson of Verizon to modify an existing cell tower (deedholder: Matt Hespen) by replacing antennas. Kester said the Planning Commission had reviewed the request on May 6, 2025 and recommended approval. The commission voted unanimously to approve the antenna replacement.
Kester noted the Planning Department maintains a list of cell-tower land agreements; she did not list conditions attached to the approval during the meeting. Commissioners and staff later referenced efforts to site an additional tower to improve coverage in outlying areas during public comment.
