About
About

A Proposed Telecommunications (Cell Tower) Facility
​
The Civic Association received a notice from Crown Castle Fiber LLC
informing our Community of their intent to install a new cell tower
at 2801 Colebrook Drive. This cell tower would be surrounded by
residential housing and a public school building.
​
We have found against having these cell towers in our Community
before and we will need your help in preserving our environment
and the healthiness of our residents. If you are not aware,
the emissions from these types of telecommunications facilities
can be quite detrimental to the health of us all.
​
Please take a moment to read attached documents.
We will keep you updated with all responses and
any community meetings scheduled addressing this matter.
