PLEASE TAKE NOTICE, the Town of Ancram Planning Board will hold a meeting on Saturday February 22, 2025 with a weather date of March 1, 2025. The meeting will be held in person at 6534 State Route 22, Ancram, NY.
PLEASE TAKE FURTHER NOTICE that Homeland Towers, LLC (“Homeland Towers”) will perform a balloon test at 6534 Route 22, Ancram, NY (the “Site”), in connection with its proposal to locate a wireless communications facility (the “Facility”) at the Site.
The Facility is proposed to include a 150-foot monopole with panel antennas thereon, together with related equipment located within a secure fenced area at the base thereof.
The balloon test will be conducted on Saturday, February 22, 2025 at the Site, or in case of inclement or windy weather, on Saturday, March 1, 2025 and then each consecutive weekend date thereafter until the balloon test is completed. The balloon shall be flown from approximately 9:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. weather permitting.
The purpose of the balloon test is to establish the approximate location and height of the Facility so that computer generated visual renderings can be prepared from various viewpoints. The balloon test will consist of an approximately three-foot diameter brightly colored balloon being floated on a tether line to a maximum height of 150 feet above ground level. A second alternate color balloon will be floated at 100 feet above ground level for evaluation purposes. Please contact the Planning Board clerk via email at Smacarthur@ancramny.org or check the Town Website at https www.ancramny.org for additional updates regarding the balloon test.
