September 22 BOS Meeting Recap
BOS Approves AT&T Tower Construction in Chilesburg Area
The Board of Supervisors at its September 22 meeting approved the construction of a new telecommunication tower to be located in the Chilesburg Secondary Growth area.
By a unanimous vote, the Board authorized an application by AT&T to construct the tower along Route 603 on property owned by private citizens.
