Tower hearing delayed over Aiken zoning for BellSouth tower
Aiken residents will wait as the City Council postpones a second reading and public hearing on a zoning change for a 0.39 acre Parcel on Colony Parkway off Whiskey Road. Crown Castle and BellSouth PCI seek a build to site tower with alternate sites being reviewed at citizen and official request. The rezoning does not guarantee a tower.
