Verizon wants to add a new communications facility at Snoqualmie Pass to boost coverage in the area, according to a conditional use permit application submitted to Kittitas County.

Cascadia PM/Verizon submitted an application for a telecommunication facility at Snoqualmie Pass. The operation would be on land zoned forest and range. The SEA Hyak site will provide coverage on I-90 between Exit 54 eastbound and the far east end of Keechelus Lake, along with ski lodges in the area, according to the proposal. The project would involve installing 12 antennas, equipment and the supporting base station at the top of the east peak chair lift at Snoqualmie Pass.

“In-building penetration for new ski resorts, coverage challenges along I-90 and continued growth for our customer base, and call traffic in this area have dictated the need for the proposed site,” the proposal said.

Verizon Wireless sites in the immediate vicinity are at or near capacity due to trying to provide service to customers in a poor coverage area, the proposal said.

Fiber optic project

In a separate application, Zayo Group is seeking a permit for an unmanned, concrete communications shelter east of Kittitas at 12800 Vantage Highway. The operation is located on a parcel zoned agricultural 20. The project will support an adjacent fiber-optic utility owned by Zayo, according to materials submitted to the county.
