Fulshear City Council has approved the addition of four cellphone towers so far in 2025. In a nutshell The most recent cell towers approved by City Council at the June 17 meeting will be at Primrose and Eagle Landing parks, which are both under construction now. The towers are intended to improve cellular connection as the city continues to grow, increasing demand, city o cials said. "Cell towers are a priority for the city right now as there is currently a limited amount of cover- age and capacity due to rapid growth," Planning Director Josh Brothers said. The items came after City Council approved towers at the Cross Creek Bend Water Plant and on FM 359 earlier this spring. A closer look The 2,500-square-foot Eagle Landing site will feature a 150-foot-tall monopole, while the
Primrose Park tower will have a minimal site plan with an area 75 square feet in size, according to agenda documents. The sites will be managed by The Towers LLC and Diamond Towers V LLC, respectively. Both locations will be able to host multiple cellular providers, per agenda documents. What they’re saying City Manager Zach Goodlander said the towers will not only help with cellular connection but also serve as a mutual bene t with two sites also hosting the city’s water meter antenna. Going forward A timeline for the cell towers was not available by press time, but Brothers said there was interest to begin construction as soon as possible. Additionally, he said the city is also working on one additional tower at another city facility.
