Tower Ordinance on the web

Hello all.

There has been a lot of discussion of the Tower Ordinances and CCIRs here 
lately. Linn County, Iowa has enacted a tower ordinance that the area hams
were very active in crafting. This is the home of Collins Radio, so there are a 
few of us around. You may find it useful in discussions with local officials. 

We have (finally) placed the Linn County Tower ordinance on the web 
site.  Its currently at http://www.rf.org/towerord.html.

Currently, this page does NOT have references pointing to it.

Eventually, the Cedar Valley ARC website will probably have links to 
it, as well as the rf.org site.

For those not familiar with this issue, several of the folks on this 
list (and others) were heavily involved with the drafting of this 
ordinance.  This process took SEVERAL years.  Many serious obstacles 
were overcome to come up with the existing form.  The Linn County 
Board of Supervisors passed this orinance in June of 1995.

This ordinance has attracted the attention of several other 
jurisdictions in the mid-west.  It is entirely likely that it will be 
used as a model for ordinances in other communities.  Those outside 
the Cedar Rapids area might find it of interest.
