Cell Phone Tower To Connect Soon

By Bob Vosseller MANCHESTER – Communication is important for everyone and for some township residents, getting connected to cell phone service as well as having bulletins posted on a public access TV station would be appreciated. Business Administrator Brandon reported on the status of the cell phone pole in Whiting that “we received word from AT&T on June 15 that it was planning its installation of equipment in the next 45 to 60 days. “We received the lease agreement and they asked us if we had any concerns and I replied and said ‘no we did not have any concerns with that time frame’ but I asked for an update in respect to Verizon and the only answer I got back was ‘yes’ Verizon would be the anchor
