Well Nat,
I feel lucky, and probably luckier that most of the hams living within city 
limits with neighbors.  I've got an LM-470 Tri-ex tower in the back yard 
with a 22' stinger (1/4" wall steel) , with 3 monobanders and a 14' 1/4" 
wall al stinger on top of that with a pulley for my dipoles.  This puts the 
dipoles at about 100'.  All this was done in 1980 when my city of residence 
DIDN'T require a building permit for installation of a tower.  Yep,, I've 
even got a letter from the city manager at the time stating this in 
WRITING.  So you can see why i'm lucky on a 75'x150' city lot.  Along with 
that I've got good neighbors and GOOD Homeowner's insurance...
best of luck with your tower,,
Bob Smith
