The applicant, Rise-Up Towers LLC, and the state public school building authority want a zoning variance to allow the tower to be placed on Greater Nanticoke Area School District Property.
The proposal has stirred conversations from residents on social media, with some questioning its safety and others saying it could be an eyesore.
That meeting is set for 6:00 p.m. at the Nanticoke City Municipal Building.
