Show Notes

St. Pete Beach, Florida, is considering a new ordinance to regulate 5G tower placements near homes. The proposed setback is at least 40 feet from houses in rights of way, aiming to enhance safety in residential areas. However, the final draft uses encouraging language instead of mandatory rules, disappointing residents and city leaders who fear it weakens protections for homeowners. Telecom companies and the city attorney argue that state laws prevent stricter local limits, leaving the ordinance on hold as officials seek more legal advice.
