Letter: South Street Verizon tower threatens neighborhood’s well-being

Letter: Cell tower plan an infringement on neighborhood

Letter: Neighborhoods need more notice on cell tower plans
To the editor: It's not only the people who live in a neighborhood who should object to a cell tower going up next door. We had many worries when we learned that AT&T was proposing to install a 154-foot tower near our home. But, one of the biggest concerns was...
