Right now, families in Tampa are fighting for more regulations about where 5G cell towers can be built in their communities. In Tampa's Bayshore Beautiful neighborhood, at least two such towers are already up, with more on the way. Like a normal cell tower, they work to speed up the wireless signal throughout the neighborhood, but neighbors say its proximity to their homes makes them uneasy. Kitty Solomon had one installed in the easement area of her front yard about a year ago. "It's very close. I sincerely feel like I'm sleeping with the pole!" Solomon joked. She said the cell tower came as a surprise. "I had absolutely no notice at all, just one day they started digging," Solomon said. A similar 5G pole sits a mile away in the same neighborhood. "It's hideous and concerning," said Leslie Thomas, who lives nearby. "I would have less internet speed, and I work from home, than have that close to my kids' bedrooms." Deeper into the neighborhood, Morgan Watts has learned of plans to install a 5G Verizon tower next to her home. "I'm upset that I don't have any say so. I'm upset that when I asked questions, the only thing I was told back was they're safe. Which, in my research, the jury's out. Even the World Health Organization's official statement on 5G is that this new technology is still under investigation," Watts said.
