In order to maintain consistency in our bylaws and to protect the rural character and aesthetic qualities of the Town of Northborough, the property values of the community and safety of the citizens, I support a 1,000 foot setback from both a school and a residence.  

Below is the current bylaw which we are proposing to have amended.

7-10-040 Wireless communications facilities.
