The Brookfield Board of Selectman at their July meeting discussed the cell tower proposals.  The Selectmen have looked at the Homeland Towers lease proposal a number of times and decided in favor of construction of a cell tower behind the brush dump on Pocono Road. 

The lease is 55 years long.  Officials have been told that the projected revenue for Brookfield could be in the range of $2.9 million to $3.5 million over that period of time. 

First Selectman Bill Davidson said the other benefit to Brookfield is that emergency services and communication will be on that tower.  The lease agreement was approved unanimously.
