Verizon Wireless is asking town officials to authorize 50 "small cell nodes," for blanket coverage by the company's 4G and 5G networks.

Some nodes would be appended atop existing utility poles and street lights. Others would require new poles. Transmission gear could be concealed within "stealth" poles.
