A protest against a proposal to build a cell phone tower at a Palo Alto swim and tennis club morphed into a celebration Thursday night as word spread through the crowd that the controversial application had been withdrawn.
The proposal called for a 75-foot tower disguised as a redwood tree, but Palo Alto has a 65-foot height limit.
Jaret said he was pleased by the news and believed the community’s opposition played a big part in the proposal’s withdrawal.
Opponents argued it would be an eyesore, could potentially adversely affect the health of students and would lower property values.
