Cell Phone Coverage

Master Plan

The quality and reliability of cell phone service has long been an issue in Cherry Hills Village as our residents have expressed safety and quality of life concerns over the years. During the 2022 City of Cherry Hills Village Master Plan process, residents indicated they wanted the city to help with improving telecommunications services in the city.

To look for a solution, the City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) and hired HR Green, an engineering firm with expertise in telecommunications planning and infrastructure, to analyze the issue and make a recommendation on the best way to improve cellular service in the City. 

After much analysis about the optimal solution, including an analysis of tower locations, the professional recommendation from HR Green was to add a total of three, 100 foot poles, one at each of three separate locations on city owned property. The location of the poles on city owned property would require approval from Village residents by a vote to comply with the City's Charter.
