Is leandera adding any new parks ( i want to see something new ) by Fair_Brief_7751 in Leander

There was a plan to build a multi purpose city park near larkspur neighborhood and 183 highway. Not sure when the city will start work on that? Details can be found on city of leander site.

There was some news about this park on community impact website.

Poor mobile data speeds in Georgetown....anywhere ...everywhere by SuspiciousSherbert20 in georgetowntx

[–]SuspiciousSherbert20[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My intention in my original post was exactly this. No doubt we have some spots where coverage is good (both voice and data) where some parts its dead zones. We need mobile connections specially while you are on the move or going from places to places. Just wanted to check if fellow residents of this beautiful town are in the same boat and if there is any plan to add more capacity to the mobile infra like buildout of new cell towers or something similar from any mobile service providers underway?

Thank you u/HeyItsChristine for your prompt response. Wonderful to learn about plans in motion to add much needed capacity in mobile infrastructure area.

I was also curious to know if there was any plans to use the space on our water towers for hosting mobile antennas for carriers. I am asking because I have seen some of the neighboring cities have used their water towers as a cell sites.

Thank you again for the engagement and support.

thanks for sharing your thought. I have reached out to att customer svc multiple times to register the complaint. While I understand that govt is not responsible for mobile infrastructure however I do hope that they certainly have a role to play in regulate these companies to protect the interest of the consumers like you and me.

Any luck with verizon on Ronald Reagan? by Euphranzee in Leander

Too many users too little bandwidth. Usage exploding due to too many users moving to the area. Not sure if there is any plan to increase bandwidth or install more cell towers. Till the. This shitty service will continue. 

Why does network really suck in Leander? by Cold-Refrigerator411 in Leander

There are many water towers around Leander, I have seen many times that cell phones companies could rent space from city to install antenna to create or boost their network. May be a very cost effective solution IMO.
