Morrisville Wireless Telecommunication Facilities Master Plan

Next, at the first open house, participants had an opportunity to view maps and interact

with planners and the technical consultant. Staff presented the findings from the first CPS.

Again, using keypad‐polling devices for real‐time responses, staff conducted another

interactive CPS with the participants to prioritize the preferred telecommunication facility

type(s) on specific publicly owned properties. Moreover, like the previous CPS, staff

prepared and posted online the same CPS conducted at the first open house. The online CPS

remained open for approximately one month. Subsequently, between the keypad polling

activity and the online CPS staff received over 120 responses to the second survey.

At the second open house, participants again had an opportunity to view more maps and

interact with planners and the technical consultant. Staff recapped the findings from the

first CPS and presented the findings from the second CPS. The technical consultant then

presented two potential telecommunication facility location hierarchy options. Applicants

for new telecommunication facilities will be required to follow the preferred hierarchy.

Using keypad‐polling devices for real‐time responses, staff conducted the final interactive

CPS with the open house participants to determine the preferred hierarchy.

As part of the planning process, the presentations, and information gathered at these

events and the online surveys was converted to portable document format (PDF) and

shared on the Morrisville website. For those choosing to stay involved via the internet, the

town website provided a good tool for information dissemination. Staff then used the

information gathered from the kickoff meeting, open house events and the online surveys

to develop this Master Plan.
