Parents in 4 communities have all OPPOSED the construction of cell towers on their public school playgrounds.
In one community, the parents appealed the decision to build a cell tower on their local school to the Maryland State Board of Education. And guess what? The parents have a very good chance of winning their appeal.
What should a Board of Education that hates public school children do when they are about to lose?
Put up those controversial cell towers as fast as possible. And that is exactly what is going on in Prince George's and Anne Arundel Counties today. Fast paced construction is putting up 4 cell towers on public school playgrounds.
Here is what the Administrative Law Judge who heard this case decided:
PROPOSED ORDER
IT IS PROPOSED that the State Board order that the Local Board's agreement to lease school property for the purpose of construction a cell tower (or cell towers) as memorialized in the Master Agreement is not consistent with its trust obligations under section 4-114(a)(1) of the Education Article.
