Ken,
Yes, avoid the Planning Department for sure. I have lived in four different 
communities and put up a tower in each and never obtained a permit!

Secondly, if I recall, someone on Tower Talk trimmed off the top of a strong 
tree and was able to mount a tribander on to the tree trunk. I have a huge ash 
on my lot right now that would serve well as a solid 60 foot mast!

Good luck with your project. You can do a lot with wire antennas is they are up 
high or configured to develop gain such as a half-square or extended zepp.
