We petition the City of Lafayette, Colorado to oppose the installation of a cell phone tower on the Indian Peaks Golf Course.
The existence of a 40 foot cell phone tower disguised as a mono pine on the Indian Peaks Golf Course would:
- Contradict the City of Lafayette’s values for community life, healthy lifestyles and sustainable living
- Devalue the capital improvements that have recently been made to the golf course
- Hurt the neighborhood aesthetics and devalue surrounding private properties
- Introduce a public hazard should the tower fall, be hit by a vehicle, catch fire or be an attractive nuisance to a child
- Put the health of our citizens and children at risk from radio frequency exposure
We demand that the City Council deny the application to build the cell phone tower and help preserve the strong community of Lafayette and the healthy, sustainable living the town affords.
I do not believe there should be a tower in a residential area near us. They are ugly. It would effect the value of our homes. I believe it is still unknown as to the safety issues. It is my understanding that it is exclusive to Verizon, that a lot of people do not have. If you allow one is every other provider going to try to put one up as well? Find another spot.
