The Spanish Fort Alabama City Council voted last week to postpone their decision making apropos of a rezoning request made in hopes of bringing a new cell tower to the area; this rezoning request would allow New Cingular Wireless to build a cell tower on an acre site that used to be the home of a gas station on the Causeway. The morning of the City Council’s rezoning vote, however, they received a letter from Cingular Wireless to allow them some more time to discuss a possibly less conspicuous location.
The letter was good news for many city officials who have expressed concerns about the current location in question, indicating that it would affect the aesthetics of the area negatively. The alternative spot is less noticeable, and the addition of a cell tower would reduce the dropped call rate within at least a 5 mile radius and greatly improve reception.
The vote has been moved to the November 17 meeting, when New Cingular Wireless will have time to discuss a better plan with local Spanish Fort AL property owners.
