Running out of time

Those who don't want to see a CPT within SMS school grounds need to act NOW!

FCC has a new ruling in Nov 2009 to speed up the application and approval of Cell Phone Towers. See DOC-294711A1.

Excerpt:

Washington, D.C. – In a Declaratory Ruling (“Ruling”) adopted today, the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) cleared the way for broadband deployment by establishing timeframes of 90 days for collocations and 150 days for all other tower siting applications reviewed by state and local governments. This action will assist in speeding the deployment of next generation wireless networks while respecting the legitimate concerns of local authorities and preserving local control over zoning and land use policies.

This is AT&T's application to FCC. Reg # 1275578 filed 8/19/2010.

What is the probability that this CPT will be built?

This is just my pessimistic estimation. Obviously the more noise you make the better. The more times you knock on the city council member's door and the bigger your group the better your chance of getting the CPT killed.

"And in this sort of race, there's no silver medal for finishing second."

Go out there and get the people involve.
