STEPAN40,

 

We do strive to expand our network consistently. We want to make sure we provide the best to our customers. Ten years is a long time and we appreciate your patience. There are several factors that are considered before we can add a tower. Is there a property that you own or know of that would work for a tower? Do you currently have Verizon Wireless service? Check out our Real Estate form http://vz.to/1MPHRiO for the details on requesting a tower.

Verizon can't just put up a tower whenever and wherever it wants. In fact often times they are DENIED permission to by locals who don't want "ugly" towers or towers that will "radiate children" These same people  are also the loudest in complaining about terrible coverage. And even when they do get permission it can take YEARS to get approved.

True.  It took T-Mobile 1 year from application for permit.

In many cases it can take longer and then get denied in the end. Happens all the time.

Speaking of t-Mobile Trustees deny T-Mobile's request for cell tower in Cary | Northwest Herald

With a 5-0 vote, the Village Board recently denied a conditional use permit for a telecommunications antenna at 30 Route 14.

Trustee Jennifer Weinhammer abstained from the vote, saying she wanted more information.

It was the third time in the past two years that the village rejected T-Mobile’s request for a new tower at the site.
