Inside Towers published an article on how a Pasco County Florida parent team was successful in getting a cell tower placement that was originally slated for Starkey Ranch, their K-8 School; moved to an alternate placement that is 2,348 feet from the school and 1,400 feet from the nearest housing location.

“By going out and relocating this, we are now 2,348 feet from the nearest school building and 1,400 feet from the nearest housing location. So, we’re much further away from the school,” stated Director of Facilities Management, Andrew Baxter. “The previous location would have allowed the siting to be at approximately 625 feet from the school. And the previous lease would have been with Vertex.”

Below are community members testifying on the issue.
