Cell tower statement to be prepared

Town of New Paltz Planning Board members are readying the final Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) for the Homeland Towers cell tower project proposed for 60 Jansen Road. The hearing on the draft statement was held in April, and the FEIS will incorporate the comments made during that hearing, as well as responses to them. From there, board members must approve a findings statement about whether the steps proposed by the applicant will mitigate the environmental impact of this tower being built.
