Wireless Antennas 

Installed In Clanton

    Construction crews began work recently to install a series of wireless communication antennas on an unused water tower owned by the City of Clanton. Installation of the antenna array will allow an expansion of the coverage area of the Verizon Wireless network and provide improvements in service and reliability for subscribers. 

    The cooperative agreement between the City of Clanton and Verizon Wireless provides for a five-year renewable lease. The antenna array will be installed on the unused water storage tank located near Keystone Drive. Utilization of the tank for this purpose will eliminate the need for construction of a stand-alone cellular tower. 

    According to Mayor Jeff Mims, the terms of the lease agreement will generate additional revenue for the city. A portion of the proceeds of the lease agreement have been applied to repainting and refurbishing the water tower for use should the city require additional storage capacity in the future. The revenue generated by the lease agreement will provide sufficient funds to complete the refurbishment project at no additional cost to the city.

    Completion of the antenna installation and other improvements to the network will expand and improve the 5G mobile coverage area for Verizon Wireless subscribers.
