This ruling is good news.
California agencies routinely require cell phone companies to make neighborhood improvements in exchange for tower permits, so they stand to get hit...and phone companies have deep pockets to make those hits.
Some permits departments nationwide require home Builders to develop off-site low-income units in exchange for permits, too.
sounds like extortion - if you wanna do something, ya gotta do something fer me, first!
glad it was overturned...this could end up being VERY good for peaceful landowners
