Question of the Week: What Should be Done About Cell Towers?

The council was on East Glen and Maple. Residents ask that a committee be formed to help explore alternative sites for towers and alternative designs, too – less-invasive to the neighborhood, maybe something that goes on top of buildings instead of a large tower that damages property value and may have safety risks attached to it.

Mayor Killion seemed skeptical of the benefits to setting up a committee like that, and said that frankly, no one wants a cell tower in their yard. Is a committee needed to determine that?

So where does a tower go? Residents around Lakeview (by Midland Park's A&P) say not there; ; ; . Anywhere? Any suggestions in Ridgewood, folks?

Is it worth the legal challenge to try and force cell carriers to bring more expensive designs like rooftop antennae when the village is already battling several lawsuits?
