Communications towers are a big deal these days with all the PCS sites
going in. That is not a category you want to be in. Hopefully the
exception for amateur radio towers is still on the books. You might
consider talking to Skip KJ6Y. He installs a lot of towers in the LA
basin. I suspect he knows the permitting drill pretty well.

>>Hello To All,

>> On Monday, I had the joy of contacting the Los Angeles County Planning

>>back to you."
>>
>> Well, I'm still waiting.

>> Does any local stations have any information on this matter?

>>Thank You in Advance.
