“Local control of cell towers is critical because zoning and land use decisions are inherently local and directly affect the safety, character, and quality of life of individual communities. State and local officials are best positioned to evaluate tower placement because they understand neighborhood conditions, local infrastructure, environmental constraints, and resident concerns in ways distant federal regulators and corporate applicants cannot. Preserving local authority ensures that communities retain a meaningful voice in decisions that impact their homes, property values, schools, and public spaces, allowing connectivity needs to be balanced with responsible planning, public safety, and community well-being.”

Our Vision
We envision a future without federal overreach, where local governments and communities are empowered to make informed decisions about cell tower and antenna siting based on all relevant factors, including health and environmental effects. Communities must be able to protect their children, as well as their health, safety, homes, and environment from the harms of wireless infrastructure.
