Poolesville’s commissioners are redrawing their agreement with Verizon as the company asks to place more cell antennas atop the town’s water tower.
The town’s current lease with Verizon allows for nine cell antennas. The company is asking for three more, according to Town Manager Wade Yost.
The telecommunications company is seeking a special exception for the additions to the water tower on Wootton Avenue. Yost said the company is seeking to expand its data transmitting capacity from a 3G network to 4G, which is generally faster, but the coverage area would not change.
Town commissioners are taking the opportunity to look at Verizon’s lease, possibly adding or modifying charges to the company.
“Basically, everything’s on the table right now,” the president of the town commissioners, Jim Brown, said at a town hall meeting on Monday.
