    “We had no idea this community did not want to upgrade.” What? Of course everyone wants an upgrade but not by placing a 198 + Ft tower illegally it seems (not meeting the 1 to1 fall distance) or to interrupt the views.
    So deny this application but where should this tower go? I didn’t read any alternative proposed solutions in this article and unfortunately was not in attendance at the meeting. Are there other locations that will work? Are their other solutions? Would be nice to have heard some of those instead of just the negativism of this situation. Surely there is a workable solution.
