After it entered a lease with a Water District in the Town of Huntington, and the lease was signed by all five commissioners of the Water District, T-Mobile proceeded to construct a cell tower on property owned by the District. The new tower’s neighbors retained attorney Andrew J. Campanelli to fight to have the tower removed.
After Mr. Campanelli presented the local zoning board with the fact that, under New York State law, the Water District lacked legal authority to lease out its own property, the Board ordered T-Mobile to tear down the tower – based upon Mr. Campanelli’s argument.
