UPDATED 4/11/12: Margaret Harris Comprehensive School

Update as of 1/3/11: The permit mentioned in this article is not a DeKalb County permit as we previously reported. We have learned that the permits listed on antennasearch.com are actually the FCC permits which must be obtained first before the local permit is issued. As of today, we have not heard of any county permits issued for our cell tower schools, however, the due diligence period for applications should be ending as early as 1/12/11. We expect to see those permits approved and construction to begin shortly thereafter.  (Or, a second due diligence period of 6 months shall begin.)

4/11/12 update:  The second due diligence period is expected to end on 7/11/12.  Construction shall commence shortly thereafter.

Administrative Permit Approved for a Vulnerable Population at Margaret Harris Comprehensive School. Listed as unregistered, T-mobile's application on 9/19/11 appears on the list as .06 miles from this special education school for students with severe and multiple disabilities, ages 3 – 21 and grades P-12.  UPDATE===  This is an FCC Permit, not a DeKalb Administrative Permit.

From the school's website: Values -- DeKalb County School System:
• Value and promote parent involvement
• Regard quality public education as essential
• Honor universal human rights
• Contribute to the common good of our community
• Hold high expectations for ALL
