The last of the Technology Center construction began on October 23rd with the raising of a 82 foot free standing communications tower.
The tower's construction was delayed while awaiting FAA approval due to the proximity to Barnes Municipal Airport. The tower will provide a platform for antennas of the city's point to point wireless network, as well as emergency services radio communications. These antennas and equipment have been staged at a nearby fire station awaiting the tower construction. The transfer of that equipment is expected to begin in the first week of November.
