More Cell Phone Towers Chased Out of Town

Cell phone towers have been shot down in Echo Park, Glendale, and now Baldwin Hills. Reports NBC: "Baldwin Hills residents fighting a T-Mobile cellular telephone tower scored Wednesday when the Los Angeles County Regional Planning Commission denied the wireless provider a zoning permit. In a split decision, the Planning Commission reversed its earlier position and denied a T-Mobile application to build a nine-antenna tower on the roof of a CVS Pharmacy at 4501 W. Slauson Ave. "This will blight (the pharmacy). It will blight our community," said Commissioner Leslie Bellamy, who represents Baldwin Hills." [NBC4]
