Tonight! Don’t Let Antennas and Cell Poles Ruin Our Neighborhoods!

Don’t Let Antennas and Cell Poles Ruin Our Neighborhoods!

We need your voice to be heard LOUD and CLEAR, if we are to beat back County ZTA 18-02, a bill that threatens to erode protections for our safety, neighborhood aesthetics, and property values. 

Please join your neighbors and friends at 7:30pm on Tuesday, April 3, 2018 to tell the County Council that you OPPOSE Zoning Text Amendment (ZTA) 18-02.  (The original hearing was postponed due to inclement weather and rescheduled for tomorrow night.)  

3rd Floor Hearing Room

100 Maryland Avenue

Rockville, MD 20850

We need an updated head count - and greatly appreciate your advance commitment.  Please let us know if you are attending. 

RSVP to controlcelltowers@gmail.com and let us know that you WILL be there!   

Your participation is essential if we are to succeed in stopping Zoning Text Amendment (ZTA) 18-02. 

Just like the predecessor amendment that we blocked in 2016, this ZTA was designed by and for the wireless industry, and not with or for residents.

We want a better ZTA; one the protects rights of residents, – and requires wireless facilities to have the least possible adverse impacts on our neighborhoods!  

WE NEED YOU to once again show the County Council that Montgomery County must put residents and our neighborhoods first 

We DO want a ZTA, but NOT this ZTA 18-02!
  • We want a ZTA that will not sacrifice our safety, neighborhood aesthetics, or property values;
  • We want a ZTA that will ensure transparency, proper notice of proposed facilities, and fair and proper consideration of our concerns in the application review process;
  • We want a ZTA that protects ALL residents, regardless of:
o   what part of the County they live in,

o   whether their utilities are above ground or underground, and

o   the type of dwelling they have;

Free Parking is available after 6:00pm in the Council Office Building (COB) Garage.  Entrance is on E. Jefferson St. (Rt. 28) on the right just before intersection at Monroe Street.

This will likely be the ONLY public hearing on ZTA 18-02, so PLEASE attend!

Be sure to alert your friends and neighbors – and pass along this email.

More details can be found on the MC4T.org website.

The Montgomery County Coalition for the Control of Cell Towers (MC4T) is fighting to keep all residents, homes and neighborhoods protected.   Contact us with any questions at controlcelltowers@gmail.com.

We look forward to seeing you tomorrow night in Rockville!
