SaskTel has proposed a 35‑metre wireless tower at 225 3rd Avenue SE (Lot 18, Block 15, Plan P5326) in Swift Current and completed an extensive ISED‑mandated public consultation, including mailed notices, a newspaper ad, and responses to numerous objections and a petition. In a June 9, 2026 email to city staff included in the June 22 council package, SaskTel requests that City Council provide a formal letter of concurrence at the June 22, 2026 meeting to finalize consultation under ISED’s CPC‑2‑0‑03 process. The consultation generated substantial community concern about health, property values, and the residential location, but SaskTel indicates all responses were addressed and ISED requirements met, and now it needs written concurrence from the City as land‑use authority.While SaskTel will fund and build the tower itself, the municipal nod, potential conditions (screening, relocation within parcel, design), and any follow‑on consideration of alternative or additional sites remain in play. Vendors serving telecom infrastructure, land‑use and community engagement, RF compliance, civil construction, and site security/maintenance can use this as an entry point with both the City and SaskTel, especially given the political sensitivity around the chosen residential site.

Consultation saw 47 written objections, 16 calls, and a petition with 468 unique signatures; this level of opposition may drive council conditions, alternative siting discussions, or future policy/consulting work on tower siting and public communication.
