Board of Selectmen

Cell Tower Developer: ‘There Is Some Urgency’ with West School Proposal

By Michael Dinan | June 28, 2022

A representative from the company that’s been working with the town on a plan to install a cell tower behind West School said Tuesday that a carrier has been waiting for several months for a lease to be signed there so that the project can move forward. Ray Vergati, a regional manager with Homeland Towers, told the three members of the Board of Selectmen during their regular meeting that “there is some urgency” with the recently disclosed plans for 769 Ponus Ridge, the 47.4-acre town-owned property where West School is located. 

“Urgency in the sense that we have been waiting patiently for seven years and we have a carrier that’s funded,” Vergati said during the meeting, held at Town Hall and via videoconference. “We don’t want to lose the funding with the carrier. So that’s our sense of urgency, in the sense that we want to keep this moving forward. But this is not an overnight process.”

He added: “Maybe ‘urgency’ is my personal word I’m using.
