There shouldn't be a specified limit.  Each case should be considered on its
own merit.  Placing a 95 foot limit in one area and then having that copied
in another doesn't judge each on its own.  That would be like the city near
me adapting a 55' limit and then the county doing the same thing, just
because.  I can put a tower up several hundred feet tall.  The county
doesn't care.  Common sense should rule, but I know some areas have just
plain ran out of such a thing.
