Even permits may not stop a neighborhood uproar.

I got this advice from a pro (K1VR, who is a lawyer specializing in  these
matters).  IF THE CITY DOES NOT REQUIRE A PERMIT, TO GET A  LETTER ON
OFFICIAL LETTERHEAD STATING NO PERMIT IS NEEDED FROM BOTH THE ZONING  AND
BUILDING
DEPARTMENT.

My deed restrictions in the area I am building are very  nebulous...same
crap about noxious activites/nusiances and all that sort of  baloney.
However, nothing about antennas/towers or height  rerstricitons.  Five or 
six
of
the neighbors upon seeing all the activity  on the lot I just bought were
asking all sorts of questions and eventually sent  me a certified letter 
saying
they were P.O.ed about any towers that would be  over 40 feet and that
multiple towers were even worse.  The letter was sent  after they contacted 
a
lawyer.  I heard through the grapevine that their  lawyer told them nothing
could be done.  We'll see.  I don't think  they'll be very happy with three
199.999 foot rotating  towers.

My adivce is to visit K1VR's site and perhaps pick up his book that  has
lots of good advice on these matters.

YMMV.  Good luck.
