As a concerned long term resident and home owner in downtown Nampa I am petitioning that the Golden Glow Tower (1108 7th st S. Nampa Id.) remove the large cell tower that is installed on the roof. The tower is installed directly above the retirement apartments, next to a long standing church, a school and many residences. My home is a mere 444 ft from this cellular tower and as many residents in the area we have young children in the home. Cellular coverage is of great importance but I think we all can agree that there are more appropriate locations for something of this nature. Not only is the tower aesthetically unappealing, more importantly it poses serious health concerns. I know many do not share the belief that cell towers pose a risk but after doing much research I cannot in good conscience be silent on the issue. Please see references below and decide for yourself if this is something that should be in close proximity of residences and schools.  I sincerely love this city and community and I believe the residence of Nampa deserve better! Please sign this petition to protect the families and future generations that make Nampa such a special place.

We therefore respectfully petition that all cell towers are removed from said property effective immediately. Ideally we would like a restrictions in place that prohibit cell towers being sited on school property or within 1,500 feet of any school and dense residential areas.
