[TowerTalk] Freestanding tower, narrow city lot

[Ryan Jairam]

Well technically no city can prohibit all antennas. You know, PRB-1
and all of that.

But the tower height with limited setback may be just the excuse they
need to deny a permit.

As for owning both properties, that is certainly interesting. I
suppose if you joined both parcels (the opposite of subdivide?) that
problem would go away? If it is residential property and not farm
assessed land it may even have a positive impact on lowering your
property taxes too if it's one big lot versus two smaller ones, at
least based on the rules of how land is valued around here.
