Cell Phone Towers Unwanted, Unneeded
Last week we received a letter informing us that T-Mobile is proposing to locate a 120-foot cell tower in the rear yard of the Monmouth Church of Christ on Hance Avenue in Tinton Falls.
Our house is next to that rear yard, and any cell phone tower will negatively affect us and our neighborhood.
Some of the families in this area have lived here for more than 30 years. Who will want to buy our houses when they turn onto our street and see a cell phone tower?
The church will benefit financially if this is approved, but at our expense. I'm all for private parties making money by agreeing to have these towers on their property - if that property isn't in a residential area.
With the need for increased broadband access, maybe more cell phone towers are needed. But not in our neighborhoods.
We want the quality of life we expect living here, which includes aesthetics. Residents in Fair Haven and Lincroft felt the same way when the cell companies tried to encroach on their neighborhoods.
When will these companies get the message? Leave our neighborhoods alone.
