I am against the proposed cell phone tower in Kenilworth.

Wireless is NOT safe and cannot be made safe. It is extremely dangerous, especially for children. They do not belong near the homes of anyone, let alone those with children. Let's STOP THESE LUNATICS!

This seems like an ill-conceived plan. Let's figure out a better way to solve this problem without building a giant tower. I am also concerned about possible health effects.

This cannot happen this close to a school -- why on earth would we take a chance with our children's health.

"Kenilworth is unique ... a pioneer experiment in planned living, incorporated as the smallest village in America in 1896 ....The 'Tuxedo of Chicago,' the press called [Joseph Sear's] World's Fair Suburb in 1893, the last to build along Chicago's North Shore; 'No. 1 on the Suburban Totem Pole,' it called it in 1967 and again in 1969. But Kenilworth is not status as those who have lived there long enough to understand well know. Kenilworth was a beautiful dream in the mind and the heart of a man, and, as Shakespeare points out, 'We are such stuff as dreams are made on.' In founding Kenilworth, Joseph Sears wove a dream into a reality and, in the doing, proved that above all, character is one's success."* Save our Kenilworth! We enjoy a special community by design and purpose, not by chance and thoughtlessness. * Excerpts from Introduction and Foreward to 'Jospeh Sears and his Kenilworth,' by Colleen Browne Kilner, 2nd Edition 1990, Kenilworth Historical Society.

"Radio energy from this site may exceed levels for safe human exposure"... for Kenilworth children and Joseph Sears faculty and administration.

WE have underground lines and power for a reason, don't ruin our landscape for a little extra cash.

Though current data may not YET be sufficient to prove harmful health consequences, too many cases have proven us wrong in the past and I would surely hope that this community would err on the cautious side. This town of one square mile should not erect such a structure which cannot be kept at a safe distance (still to be determined) from residencies/schools by virtue of its limited surface area. Moreover given the high property tax rates it will deter future buyers to have to both look at and live under uncertain health risks. Only time will tell what these are and KW should not be the case study. I am appalled that this is even being considered as a new home owner and would not have bought here had I known about it.

This is such a bad idea on so many levels, I cannot believe the town was properly notified about this project. I think at the very least we need a well publicized open meeting to hear all the facts.

Why is it whenever Kenilworth wants to build an eyesore/community health hazard it ends up in the northwest corner of town?

It's really troubling that the proposal make it this far without the Village alerting residents. .

One of the best parts of the neighborhood is the environment for our children. This tower so close to Sears is an unwarranted risk.
