Tell Mr. Forbes how you feel about the proposed Brace Canyon park wireless tower located in a single family residential neighborhood (R-1 zoned). It's not just an unhealthy nuisance, but unaesthetic, and not fitting in with the character of our neighborhood. Tell him also that the Planning Board study about wireless facilities needs to include community input, and not just input from the wireless industry. Michael Forbes, Asst. Community Development Director/City Planner: mforbes@ci.burbank.ca.us Also cc: Assistant Planner Amanda Klotzche, who is overseeing the drafting of the city's new wireless facility ordinance: aklotzsche@ci.burbank.ca.us |
