GENEVA TOWNSHIP, Ohio — A local business owner has filed a lawsuit against Geneva Township, wireless giant T-Mobile and a Florida-based communications tower company for allegedly encroaching upon his property to bury utility lines, preventing the business from expanding.
According to the lease agreement, T-Mobile agreed to pay $500 for the option to lease part of the township’s property, in addition to a monthly rent of $1000. The lease has been routinely extended every year. The cell tower is currently owned by SBA Monarch Towers III LLC, which leases it back to T-Mobile.
Peet said the issue of the underground utility lines came to the forefront in 2019 when he began exploring the possibility of selling part of his property and relocating his operation to the northern half of his four-acre tract of land. A nearby business had expressed interest in purchasing part of Peet’s property but a potential deal was derailed by the discovery of the utility lines.
The location of the utility lines has effectively rendered nearly an acre of Peet’s property unfit for development. According to the lawsuit, Peet alleges the township, T-Mobile, and SBA Monarch Towers have all profited off of the encroachment while also failing to properly compensate Peet.
