CONWAY — The Conway Zoning Board of Adjustment on Wednesday approved two special exceptions for a 160-foot cell tower to be built off of Artist Falls Road in North Conway.

Francis Parisi of Providence, R.I.-based Vertex Towers presented the project to the board, which would be 160 feet tall and have "appurtenances" extending another 6 feet, along with a 60-by-60-foot fenced compound for telecommunications equipment on a 30-acre undeveloped parcel.

This cell phone tower will be a detriment to our beautiful valley. It's NOT necessary. Can't believe more people didn't show up to object- has this been kept a secret? Valley residents need to know!
