Commnet Four Corners received approval from the Park County Board of County Commissioners to install cellular telecommunications tower in Ranch of the Rockies subdivision on Nov. 19.
Ranch of the Rockies is in southwestern Park County.
The lattice tower will be 100 feet tall and placed on a private lot at 403 Adobe Road. Commnet is in the process of purchasing the lot.
It will provide cell phone (voice, text and data) service to the subdivision and possibly some portions of U.S. Highways 24 and 285.
Commnet Vice President Network Support Services Mark Hansen said a lattice tower was chosen over a monopole because lattice towers are stronger and provide more usable space for private entities and local emergency services to co-locate on the tower.
