Silver Lake Council Mulls Renting Water Tower Space For Broadband

SILVER LAKE - Residents and businesses in Silver Lake could soon have broadband Internet service. Lance German, a representative from Network Computer Solutions in Warsaw, addressed the Silver Lake Town Council Tuesday and inquired about leasing space on the town's water tower.The company wants to put three or four small antennas on top of the water tower to provide broadband Internet service to Silver Lake and surrounding areas. "Basically (the antennas) blend in with the tower," said German. German presented the council with a lease agreement that entitles the town to $1 per foot of tower height per month, amounting to around $100 to $120 per month for the next five years. The council approved the lease 3-0 pending the approval of town attorney Vern Landis. Then the council heard that a bridge project approved in December is now on hold because the state requires more detailed drawings of the project.
