Zoning Board Denies Cell Tower Application Request for Second Time

By B.N. Frank

Not everyone is okay with having cell towers of any size installed near their homes, schools, and throughout their communities.  Decades of research have already determined that exposure to Electromagnetic Fields (EMF) from cell towers and other wireless radiation emitting sources is biologically harmful.  Of course health risks aren’t the only reason a growing number of Americans – including firefighters, lawmakers, and celebrities – have been taking action against installation (see 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31).  Recently a zoning board in Pennsylvania also decided to deny an application for the second time.

Pennsylvania County Resists Cell Tower Request

Focusing on the reaction from Plymouth, PA residents, WBRE-TV reports that voices were loud in support of the Plymouth Borough Zoning Board’s decision to deny a Verizon cell tower request. Details about the appearance of the proposed cell tower were not provided, noting only that the tower would include nine panel-style antennas, a five-foot lightning rod, and a six-foot surrounding fence.

The unnamed residents quoted by the source did not comment on the specifics of their objections but were jubilant in expressing their delight that an unwelcome structure would not occupy their residential neighborhood. “I’ve been there 46 years. I don’t think we need a tower there. I don’t think it should be there,” said one commenter.

“If they want it so bad, they can put it in their own yard,” added another.

“I think we always hear safe and effective,” a third person noted, “We’ve heard it lately in history and it’s proven not to be safe and effective.”

A DBM engineer working with Verizon attempted to reassure residents that no electromagnetic health risks were present. “I would expect measured results to be around a single percent or less if we were to measure at ground level,” he stated.

Regardless, the zoning board declined to approve Verizon’s cell tower request. WBRE-TV notes that this is the second time the project has been rebuffed.
