Funds will be pledged towards tennis court improvements. Joan Botwinick, 511 Westview Drive, requested the appointment of a Cell Tower Task Force to study the legal, health, economic and aesthetic impacts of cell towers and for a report from them within the six months documenting its findings. She further requested that no permits be issues for towers in University City until the Task Force Report is received and studied by the Council. Amy Ziegler, 711 Yale Avenue, asked the Council to withhold a decision to lease land for use of a cell tower until health aspects have been explored and understood fully. Mary Nani Kenyon, 963 Gay Avenue, opposes a cell phone tower being erected in Heman Park because of its impact on aesthetics.
