Bayville Residents Against Cell Towers
A VERY SERIOUS SITUATION EXISTS IN BAYVILLE N.Y.
Bayville Cell Tower FAQ's
Harrison Williams Deed
The Jericho Water District said “NO” to the police antenna because they felt it was
a safety risk to their water supply – why does Bayville have no problem with that?
Radiation is known to be emitted from cell phone antenna.
Should they be sitting on our water supply?
The International Association of Firefighters has banned microwave radio antenna
from being placed on their firehouses due to health risks to their men – our
antenna will be across the street from our schools.
If the antennas are considered not safe for the grown New York City firefighters,
why would they be safe for a 5 year old developing brain?
Los Angeles County bans cell towers near its schools – ours is 50 feet away from
our school children.
Why were hundreds of Bayville residents who signed petitions opposing the site of
the police equipment completely ignored when the Mayor and Trustees voted YES?
Any property owner who has ever wanted a variance, etc. knows of the Village’s
strict requirement of certified mail within a certain radius – is the Village above its
own law? We don’t think so!
Nobody can tell you it is absolutely safe – Scientists all over the world say it is not!
BRACT needs your help.
We are a group of Bayville residents that love our Village. We are not against Bayville
we are against the decisions that led to the cell phone antennas that are presently on
our water tower, and the new police equipment to be added. We are not against the
concept of protecting our residents during emergencies (the purpose of the police
equipment), but we object strongly to their improper placement across the street from
our elementary schools, atop an already much compromised water tower.
Indeed, in the words of the Village’s own expert, "we should be worried about what is
already up there", just as the Village expert admitted to the harmful effects of the cell
phone tower, the Village of Bayville also admitted that the “Wireless
Telecommunications Facilities may pose significant concerns to the health, safety, public
welfare, historic character, aesthetic qualities and environment of the Village and its
inhabitants.” (Local Law Number 2002-8 Section 2).
