ALERT - Updated Proposal - Rogers Cell Tower


ALERT - Updated Proposal - Rogers Cell Tower
The Issue
Rogers is once again seeking approval for a 63 meter high cell tower(206 ft. or equivalent to a 20-storey building) adjacent to our neighborhood. They have made a nominal change from the 2022 attempt by moving the tower site back another 30 meters. This is not what the citizens of our neighborhood asked for. Rogers needs to find a new site away from our houses. EU countries and North Cowichan require a 500m setback. The 60m setback on this proposal is not adequate.
There are unanswered safety concerns as well as the visibility issues of such a huge structure. A significant amount of trees will have to be removed to accommodate access and construction of the proposed site.
The response deadline is July 12, 2024 so immediate action is required. Let your voice be heard. For more details or copy of the Rogers proposal, contact cowbayresidentsassoc@gmail.com
