BoardBoard Of Supervisors Staff Report
The Board of Supervisors reviewed a conditional use permit request (Case C-26-1) from Virginia Power and Electric Co. (Dominion Energy) to construct and operate a 420-foot self-support wireless telecommunications tower at the Carson Substation. Key discussions included site selection rationales, compliance with zoning setback requirements, visual impacts, safety and fall radius engineering, and the removal of existing towers. The Planning Commission recommended disapproval of the request, and the report details the proposed conditions for either approval or disapproval for the Board's final consideration.
