Verizon wants to put a 200' monopole on my property
by Stephanie
(Hartwood, VA)
I live in a suburb of Washington, DC - Stafford County to be more specific. While I live in the western part of the county that is not as developed as the eastern, the county has been experiencing 6% annual population growth and there is a major highway (30- 40,000+ vehicles) per day within 2 miles of the proposed tower. Within 5 miles of the proposed pole, the county is has designated a "high density redevelopment plan" for the county along the same highway corridor. In other words, a lot more residential and business development.
Verizon has approached me about putting a 200' monopole on my property. The Land Acquisition Specialist has said my property is ground zero for where they want to put a tower to address existing issues of poor coverage/dropped calls. I also have the infrastructure (power, Verizon Fiber, access road) already in place which would save them a lot of money in the installation vs my neighbors.
The initial offer is $1,100 per month for a 25 year lease which I feel is extremely low. I know that's their job to low-ball me and I'm not having any part of that. What would be a realistic number to throw back at them? I was more along the lines of $2,000 minimum.
