Wireless tower owner and developer, Milestone Communications announced that it executed an amended Master Lease Agreement with Prince William County Public Works, expanding a 15-year Park Authority agreement to include new sites for consideration as potential cell tower locations. Under the terms of the agreement, 114 new County-owned properties will be added to Milestone’s Mid-Atlantic portfolio of sites actively marketed to wireless carriers, including courthouse land, administrative building compounds, libraries and police stations.
The amendment represents the continuation of a successful partnership between Milestone and Prince William County. Milestone has built seven towers on Park Authority property since the original agreement, with six additional sites currently in development.
Milestone provides a new tower development process that emphasizes communication with community leaders and residents, including dedicated websites, community meetings and social media interaction. “It’s absolutely critical in the development of a successful wireless infrastructure program,” said Milestone CEO, Len Forkas. “We’re excited to bring this model to an expanded list of great properties and communities in Prince William County.”
