Mixed review for Melfort cell tower proposal
SaskTel is going to be asking for public input on a large cell tower for Melfort.
The crown corporation wants to put the tower in the southwest part of the city. But it’s right across the street from a residential area – which is why SaskTel plans to do public consultation.
Melfort City Council approved SaskTel’s consultation plan, but the vote was not unanimous.
“Our committee, we didn’t like where it is…we tell them we don’t like where it is, and they come back with this proposal to see what the neighborhood says,” said councillor Doug Terry, who voted against approving the consultation plan.
