My neighbor wants to put up a 150' Cingular cell phone tower - Legal recourse to get it stopped?

Yep, life is good living in your little slice of Redneckia where there's little to no zoning to stop your "sleaze ball" redneck neighbor from doing something to irritate his whining, thin-skinned, meddling neighbor. Given how derisively you speak of him, we can be certain that if it ain't this, it'll be something else. And it will probably be even more hilarious. I'm thinking maybe a mink farm.

There have been cases where people have thought there house was haunted when in reality, power lines were effecting the eletromagnetic field of the immediate area playing tricks with cameras and lights.

so that explains all those "my celebrity ghost story" tv programs.

When I moved to my 8 acre neighborhood yard, I had a neighbor anonymously call our local government to inspect for any possible code violations on the fence I was installing (she didn't like the looks of it).... and it wasn't chain link. The code inspector had the name of the person who made the call...so I know.

So, I had already invested $5,000 on the front portion... only partially constructed... when we had to stop everything and worry about the inspection and the loss of the cash.

The inspector found nothing and we carried on. Also, two years later, we have the entire fence line gardened up and with a beautiful, tree'd hedge where before there was nothing but weedy grass.... it might be the best looking front fence for miles.

So now we are getting an offer for a cell tower! Oh man.... I'm still thinking about it, but it would be sweet, sweet revenge on that meddling neighbor!... all the while, I get paid.

I have never really noticed cell towers, so not so sure that I find them offensive.

What ever happened in the case of OP stopping the cell tower? Inquiring minds want to know.

[NARFALICIOUS]

OP is in jail for attempting to cut it down.

probably not much you can do to stop it. something that concerns me though the us doesn't recognize it is emf waves from power lines and cell phones lines. in many european countries it's considered a toxic material or cancer causing material but not in the us. i wouldn't wanna live under those towers.
