[Towertalk] Building Permit or Not

[Jeff Singer]

If all of your neighbors are with you, I would go for the permit now, since
once you get on the air their views might change, complaints might fly, and
you will then have opposition at a nasty hearing.

A friendly hearing is much better for you.

Just my 2c.
