The battle over cell phone towers close by Santa Barbara homes is generally inconsistent. Most want better cell phone coverage and do not want their phone calls dropped. However, most communities try to keep cell towers out of their neighborhoods. Towers might drop property value and are very unsightly. For a cell tower to operate properly, it must be visible. Above the tree lines, an unattractive, colossal piece of steel must be installed. This is fine for a downtown setting, but does not fit well into a neighborhood design.

To combat this, companies began putting towers in that look like trees. However, nobody is fooled by a steel tree. When debating towers with neighborhoods, cell phone companies have to be sensitive and open. It is possible to win a battle against cell phone companies, Santa Barbara households must keep this in mind. By approaching the situation with a team mentality, both sides ought to get what they want.
