Western Shore: Eastlink Nixes Cell Phone Tower

 

Eastlink has scrapped the idea of constructing a cell phone tower in Western Shore. The company was proposing to build a new tower near Frank Swinimar Road. However, many residents were against the location because it was too close to where they live. Councillor Bob Myra says the company told him in a letter they would no longer pursue the Western Shore location. He says residents are very pleased with the news and praised the company for listening to their concerns. Eastlink says they will continue to explore a potential location for another cell phone tower.
