The property is currently zoned R1, is approximately 160 acres, and is improved with the Springbrook Golf Course as owned and operated by the Naperville Park District. A lease agreement was established between the petitioner and the Naperville Park District in February 2017 in order to locate the proposed wireless facility on the property.
Council discussed tower location, site capacity, number of carriers, and co-location.
Shinkle further explained the primary purpose of the proposed telecommunication tower is to fill a coverage gap in cellular communication for Verizon Wireless users in the area. The tower will also help provide better emergency communication service and give an opportunity for other cellular service providers to co-locate onto the tower.
