There remain a number of neighborhood 5G towers planned by Verizon pending with the City of Fishers. The Board of Public Works & Safety handles these requests and has delayed consideration of many to January.
Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness said at the outset of the Monday morning board meeting that 5G towers would not be considered on December 13, because City Attorney Chris Greisl could not appear at the meeting in person, although Attorney Greisl did participate telephonically.
There is another Board of Works session scheduled for December 29, but it appears no 5G towers will be considered then. The city’s Web page devoted to 5G issues lists the following neighborhoods as having towers to be considered at the January 11, 2022, Board of Works meeting:
- Berkley Grove
- Cottingham Estates
- Conner Knoll
- Fawnsbrook
- Glenn Abbey Village
- Oxford Park
- Reserve at Lantern
- Weaver Woods North
In one other item on the board’s Monday morning agenda, approval was given to utilize a state law allowing electronic participation for board members. If there is no state or local emergency order, one of the three board members may participate in official meetings electronically, with some limits on how often this option may be used.
The Board of Pubic Works and Safety consists of Mayor Scott Fadness and his two appointees, Jason Meyer and Jeff Lantz
