Abstract
The onslaught of the current advancements in telecommuni-cations and the apparent successful marketing of personal wireless services (PWS) has caught many, if not most, local jurisdictions ill prepared to deal with the land-use implications of this phenomenon. Communications towers and mono-poles begin springing from the ground like mushrooms. Constituents deluge local officials with questions, comments, and complaints, and local officials respond at times with ill-conceived moratoriums and regulations. The PWS carriers relentlessly keep on the pressure to keep up with market demand and new competition.
