Petition to RelocateRELOCATE Proposed Cell Tower in Marshfield:

We,We acknowledge and understand the need for better cell coverage in our town and surrounding towns - particularly in our village and towns to the north and east of Marshfield (Cabot, Danville, Peacham, Groton, etc).

However, we, the undersigned, stand united in our opposition to Verizon's proposal to construct a 140-foot cell tower at 2264 U.S. Route 2. This tower threatens to disrupt our landscape and poses health risks, as it lies within a 0.3-mile radius of our village's densest population.

Research indicates increased health risks, including cancer, including increased harm to children, and harm to pets, livestock, and local wildlife. Additionally, the tower's visibility could reduce property values and be significantly injurious to the natural aesthetic beauty of Marshfield, especially our village center. Verizon must find alternative locations that are greater than 3.5 miles from the village center.

Join us in protecting the health, safety, and beauty of our town by signing this petition to demand the relocation of the proposed cell tower.
