Incorrect. There have been many towers built and ready to go, that have stalled because council approval hasnt been gived, has been revoked, or is under review.

The locality has nothing to do with it - as it was merely an example. English isn't your first language is it Roddles?

Your attempt to get off track is indeed irrelevant.
Statement was : "There have been many towers built and ready to go, that have stalled because council approval hasnt been gived, has been revoked, or is under review."
Question was "Where? Please provide some examples"
And the answer was "http://www.warringah.nsw.gov.au/pdf/2004021041.pdf. "

Not entirly (at least in NSW) - items in an open session can be refered to the closed session if required at the perogative of counsellors/mayor
An item is considered to be 'confidential' where it meets one of the requirements in Section 10A(2) of the Local Government Act. In which case no discussion is usually entered into during an open session, however an 'abstract title' could be mentioned in the council's business paper and minutes (which are freely available to the public)

Anything that a council forms a decision on (even if that decision is to have a closed session) is documented.
> council discussions with carriers about towers and permits arent held in > a council chamber, fuckwit Yes they are, fuckwit, and for a very good reason. The councilors are only there to represent their residents. The residents have a legal right to view proceedings that relate to developments within their city/shire. The only time this does not apply is where personal information or commercially sensitive information is to be discussed, in which case it is moved to a closed session after first being raised in an open session where it is minuted.

Yeah, right. Minutes are taken for even the most pointless meetings. They can't make a decision about a mobile phone tower and not have minutes, especially since such decisions are often met with opposition from the public.

Correct again, but if the approved plan is later disputed by residents and results in that approval being revoked it does result in a council meeting, where it is minuted.

In the cases you are talking about where planning approval is granted, then taken away that's exactly what happens. The initial approval can be given by an employee (as long as the proposed structure meets relevant planning laws) but if there is a public objection lodged that results in the planning approval being revoked (which is what you claimed happened) it is discussed at a council session were it is minuted.
You still haven't provided any evidence to back up your claim that towers have been built without approval so I'll take your post to be the usual bullshit that pours from you.

The earlier argument is about whether or not a tower has been approved, built, then had approval revoked as Michael earlier claimed. I'll take his claim as bullshit.

Names ? and out of the 10,000 + base stations how many of these would there be ? I said generally once the tower is built (pole stuck in the ground in this case, be better up your arse though) it's around 2-4 weeks.
However in Flowerdale Victoria there was a tower put up in June 2003, equipment installed in July 2003, and was activated in April 2004. However, in this case they were waiting to install Kinglake to run the MWI

You sure it's just an Optus tower? Those other antennas look like long range Telstra or Vodafone antennas. There's no link dish either (that I can see). You might have a while to wait yet!
Graham.
Gerry - 24 Apr 2004 06:40 GMT G'day Graham, yep, it is Optus, they put the original application sign on the property fenceline months ago, and I was talking to the install contractors a couple of days ago, and they install for Optus Voda & Hutch, they were saying the large wire frame array (they thought it was receive only) but I guess as it is pretty remote to the north west and north they would be a form of High gain antenna.. I can only see cables to the south side small unit at present, they said they were building another tower at Mt Samson, (South of Dayboro) for those who dont know. and I guess they are dividing the time between both, so we will wait, and wait and w......
shame the pix look like crap when I reduced them.... the full size ones have good definition. I guess you get that eh.

You might have a while to wait yet! Yes it does appear to be Voda or Telstra long range antennas, but the tower looks to be an "optus tower" the comms hut will tell all

Yes Tim I was, Voda has coverage but on the same site as Optus & Telstra (Wildhorse) which is a long way away, and then it hops around all over the place too.... therefore the calls drop out or you run around like a ckookless head trying to find the signal ;-)
