Parents vow to fight phone mast planning approval
Waterford City Council this week gave the thumbs up to the Meteor mobile phone mast, located on the grounds of Ballygunner Hurling Club on the edge of the city. Over 20 objections were lodged by parents, the school, community groups and residents of the area.
But despite the protests, the city council granted the retention, subject to five conditions. They include a review of the development within five years, a ban on further instalments on the site without prior notice and restrictions on lighting accompanying the mast.
