The progress of the Cordry Sweetwater Cell Phone Tower has hit a snag. Verizon has completed a land survey, completed core samples, and is ready to negotiate a lease agreement. At the January 3rd, 2010 CSCD meeting, legal advice told the audience that an amendment in the Indiana State Legislature is needed. Many of us have been e-mailing or writing to our state senator and state representative to: "Support an amendment to grant conservancy districts the ability to lease property for cell phone towers." Both the state senator and the state representative have been responding to contacts promising to sponsor such an amendment. The legislature is a "short session" this year.
