Blake:
With all due respect, the reason we have found it necessary to write this type of verbage into our zoning regulations is the total and complete unwillingness of wireless companies to be reasonable and accomodating to public safety when it comes to allowing us on their towers. They see us only as another for-profit wireless company with tons of money to spend, and they want either several thousand a month in tower rent or several million in excess liability coverage (far beyond tort limits for local governments). And they won't budge. Local dealers understand and cooperate, but not the big boys.
