More tower talk

To the Editor: 

 

Thanks to Alex Warren for voicing the fallacy surrounding the construction of the city’s communication tower. There were no plans available for review. There was no building permit for a stand-alone tower 170 feet high and averaging what... eight feet wide? They know it was unacceptable so they erected it as fast as they could on a Friday so the risk of a stop-work order or an injunction would be minimized. It’s not just a “selfish few” whose public rights were violated. People all over Berkeley know that the tower must be replaced.
