The two shacks (and towers) are tied together via 60GHz microwave link and share a LAN.  The site will provide 2 sectors worth of regional coverage.  One sector bearing north, and the other bearing 120 degrees.  The site will also feature a remotely controllable PTZ camera which will stream 24/7.  All links have excellent signal quality.  The items marked "Future Deploy" are scheduled for deployment this coming weekend.  The other items are already deployed.

This spreadsheet GRAND TOTAL tracks the total cost of the site.  In terms of the remaining expenses for HamWAN and me to be square, that is only $1,120.  I have submitted a reimbursement request to the board for that amount, in parallel with this vote approval request.
