Cherry Plain Balloon Test
January 30, 2009 by eastwickpress · 2 Comments
This three foot diameter weather balloon was raised to a height of 141 feet above the Levy property on Cherry Plain Hill Road last week so residents could judge the impact of the cell phone tower proposed by Verizon for that location. Just imagine a tower from the balloon to the ground. Neighbors have serious concerns about health issues and about losing the rural character of the area. Photo courtesy of Julie Harrell.
Cell Towers:
Having lived in Center Berlin for almost 40 years, the phone tower will
not change the rural character of the area any more than a house which
is not natural to the area. So we should not build homes also???
The so called health issues are also bogus, having lived near high
voltage towers for many years in Stephentown. I still only have only two eyes, arms, legs, hands, ears, and one head, still able to drive to anywhere
we want to go, even on the left side of the road in Au/NZ/Greece.
Relax and enjoy the benefit of cell phone towers.
We’ve had the cell tower in Petersburgh since September of 08 and we’re all still alive and well. People don’t even notice that it’s there anymore. It’s a great convinience to us all and this area will always be beautiful no matter what. Grafton has had a tower for a couple years now and they are still alive and well also. People need to learn that we live in the 21ST CENTURY!
